Simply lovely Iowa City house just minutes from downtown and the University. With hardwood floors and much of the original woodwork throughout, this house offers the quintessential charm of old Iowa City. A covered front porch is the perfect place to welcome guests. A wall of built-in bookshelves flank one of the many windows on the main floor, making a perfect place for books, art and your plants. The roomy kitchen has tons of cabinet & counter space as well as room for a table. Unlike most older homes this one has the ease of main floor laundry and a huge storage room that is large enough to convert into a main floor bathroom or pantry. The upstairs offers 3 large bedrooms a bathroom and an office which leads to an additional finished space in the attic. This space would be perfect for an additional non conforming bedroom or a beautiful studio space. The plantings in the yard include perennials such as rhubarb and raspberries! Stumpf Construction did waterproofing in the basement in 2013. Basement has amazing space and has been most recently used as an art studio. Roof was replaced in 2022.

RS8
Medium Density Single-Family Residential Zone
The purpose of the medium density single-family residential zone RS-8 is primarily to provide for the development of small lot single-family dwellings. The regulations are intended to create, maintain, and promote livable neighborhoods. The regulations allow for some flexibility of dwelling types to provide housing opportunities for a variety of household types. Special attention should be given to site design to ensure the development of quality neighborhoods. Nonresidential uses and structures permitted in this zone should be planned and designed to be compatible with the character, scale, and pattern of the residential development.
