A cozy, stone faced home in a great neighborhood close to all your needs! Here you will be just a short drive from Merle Hay Mall and other amenities. Once you step inside, be welcomed by hardwood floors throughout the living room and bedrooms. Spend your evenings relaxing when you descend into the family room addition, which includes an additional 320 sq ft not featured on assessor site. In the spring, open the sliding side doors and breathe in the fresh Iowa air, then hang out in your 1/4 acre, fully fenced backyard. An additional perk to this home is a brand new roof installed in Sept 2019. Set your showing today before it is too late!
