Rare market opportunity! Offered for owner occupied purchase for the very first time, this 1969 ranch style home has served as a beloved church parsonage for decades. Situated on a highly desirable lot on the western edge of Grinnell, the property offers an expansive layout that feels almost like an acreage while keeping the convenience of city water and sewer. The location is unbeatable, offering immediate access to the high school, Lyons Park, the city waterpark, and local bike trails. Spanning 879 above ground square feet, the bright interior features large vinyl windows that flood the home with natural light. The main floor layout consists of three comfortable bedrooms, while a fourth bedroom is located in the mostly finished basement. Built over a sturdy poured concrete foundation, th e lower level offers excellent functional space. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a newer roof, newer siding, and extensive new flooring throughout the main level. Outside, a massive new concrete patio off the west side creates a seamless connection between the house and the detached garage. The oversized 20x24 two car garage includes a small attached shed off the back corner, providing ideal storage space for a lawnmower, tools, or even a smaller vehicle. Essential appliances are included with the sale, including a refrigerator, stove, washer, and dryer. Do not miss your chance to own this bright, well located piece of Grinnell history!
