This unique in-town acreage offers the privacy and space of country living while still being convenient to everything North Ames has to offer. This mid-century home sits on 2.5 acres and offers 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The home has a distinctive character and plenty of opportunity to make it your own, whether you embrace its mid-century style or bring your own vision to the space. Tucked away on a private acreage, yet close to North Ames shopping, restaurants, and schools, this is a rare opportunity to have land and privacy without giving up the convenience of being in town.
