## Description

### Agent Description
Set just blocks from Drake University and within easy walking distance of campus, this 1 1/2-story home brings together the character people love with updates that matter. Hardwood floors run throughout, updated windows bring in plenty of natural light, and the HVAC was replaced within the last year.. taking one of the bigger-ticket items off the list. Out front, a covered porch gives the home that classic neighborhood feel. Inside, the layout creates options make it your own, use the additional bedrooms to offset your monthly payment, or add it to a rental portfolio in an area with built-in demand. Character. Location. Flexibility. Whether you?re looking for a place to call home or a property that can work for you, this one deserves a look.
