Location is a standout here; approximately a 10 minute walk to Iowa State University, 6 minute walk to West Hy-Vee and just down the street from a CyRide stop at Lincoln Way & Franklin. Whether you're looking for your first home, an Ames investment property or a place for your student while attending ISU, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers plenty of flexibility. Previously rented for $2,450/month with a current City of Ames Letter of Compliance, the property has an established rental history. Inside, you'll find new LVP flooring, fresh paint and new carpet throughout. The main level features a spacious living and dining area with newly-painted built-ins, kitchen, laundry hookups, two bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs offers an additional bedroom space, while the finished basement includes another bedroom, laundry room, living space and a 3/4 bath with tiled shower. A covered front porch, private backyard and one-car detached garage round out a property that's equally appealing as a home or investment.
