Agent Description

Incredible mid-century modern home boasting exceptional potential! Built in 1956, this custom brick home has been lovingly maintained and offers timeless architectural details that are ready to shine with light cosmetic updates such as fresh paint and flooring.

The vaulted living room features exposed beams, asymmetrical clerestory windows, a beautiful fireplace feature, and tons of natural light - all hallmarks of authentic mid-century modern design. Original mahogany woodwork remains meticulously intact throughout the home and quality doors and windows still operate smoothly.

The hardwood floors are preserved in excellent condition with more waiting to be revealed beneath the carpet. The basement adds over 1,000 sq. ft. of usable space, including a large rec room, 3/4 bath, and non-conforming bedroom/office/flex room. Situated on a wooded lot filled with mature trees and wildflowers that add incredible beauty (and energy efficiency), this property offers your own private oasis which is tough to find in town.

You'll love the convenience of being located just minutes from the ISU campus, west Ames amenities, and Hwy 30. It's not often that a home with this level of preserved mid-century authenticity becomes available - a true architectural gem in a quiet neighborhood. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history, schedule your showing today!
