The main level is filled with the character and charm that make this home so special, featuring beautiful original woodwork, pocket doors, and timeless details throughout. A convenient main level owner's suite with a private 3/4 bath. The formal dining room provides the perfect spot for gathering.

The large fenced backyard offers plenty of room to relax, play, garden, or entertain. Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck, gather around the fire ring on cool evenings, or pick cherries from your very own tart cherry tree. Need extra storage or workspace? The spacious utility and wood shed features built-in workbenches with plenty of room for tools, hobbies, and projects. Also large enough to house a small car if you desire. ## Location - **Address:** 218 E 7th Street, Ames, IA 50010 - **County:** Story - **Coordinates:** 42.027767, -93.607802 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=42.027767,-93.607802 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Sharon Johnson · **License:** S61871 - **Brokerage:** RE/MAX REAL ESTATE CENTER - **Broker Phone:** 2324663 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/218-E-7th-St_Ames_IA_50010_M71195-37928?f=listhub&s=CIBORIA&m=70912&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f2989925488r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f141003616r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3919247150r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f4262095231r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f1397076092r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3179007216r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f1870531050r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f2142929349r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f149067178r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f224228720r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f118333053r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f1153071694r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3024496733r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f755592358r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f4095812480r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3345383281r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f4172398912r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f2314436532r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f4093538152r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3496472363r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f1962621011r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f4277616501r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3697508599r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f1110336491r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3737317731r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f2850877375r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f3738207656r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f269829596r.jpg) ![218 E 7th Street - Photo 29](http://lh.rdcpix.com/78bf18beea91aabca30a91b034b710eal-f2403670596r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 70912 | **Updated:** 2026-10-27 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Central Iowa Board of Realtors, Inc.
