About this home

Tucked away on a street so charming you’d swear it was made up, this sun-drenched midcentury charmer is an unassuming gem. Updates inside round it out: three vibrant bedrooms, a fully renovated kitchen, two bathrooms, and basement replete with hand-stained wood ceiling. The four seasons room - perfect for hosting - abuts a verdant backyard dotted by oak, maple and cherry blossom; the perfect setting for long summer nights grilling and winter sledding on the sleepy golf course next door. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better front porch to watch that golden Iowa sunset, or a street full of neighbors as warm-hearted and generous. This is the place where life makes sense, right in the center of town and yet magically nestled away from the noise and hubbub. Where you’ll walk to the best diner in Iowa for Sunday brunch, the French bakery for fresh bread, and the cheese shop for wine and provisions. This isn’t a place you’ll lay your head, this is where you’ll find your self. This is where you’ll finally be home. Is this heaven? No, it's Algonquin Road.
