Home has a lot of volume including huge finished attic space. Bigger room sizes than typical prairie home. Great ceiling heights throughout. Full unfinished dry basement. I-beams retro fitted in basement to provide superior structural support....
Charming three season porch at front of house. Home is right on stop light along Ridge so traffic noise is a concern.
