About this home
New roof. New gutters. Waterproofed basement with a Thrasher foundation warranty. Fresh paint inside and out and brand-new appliances. The hard work at 1417 Grand Avenue is already done, so all that's left is moving in.
You'll notice the difference the moment you pull up. The exterior has been freshly painted in a bold navy blue with crisp white trim, giving this 1940s North Ames home standout curb appeal. A front stoop with railing greets you at the door, and the attached garage keeps your vehicle out of Iowa winters while giving you extra storage for tools, bikes, and seasonal gear.
Inside, the home has been completely updated, and fresh paint throughout gives every room a bright, clean, move-in-ready feel. With 1,454 square feet of living space, there's room for everyone to spread out.
The kitchen's new appliances mean there's nothing to replace or upgrade. Just unpack and start cooking.
The main floor has two bedrooms, and a 200-square-foot addition adds even more living space.
Then there's the upstairs bedroom, and it's full of surprises. Along with a huge closet, it has a separate room that would make a perfect dressing room or a fun secret room just waiting to become a reading nook, a hideaway, or the best storage spot in the house. It's a space with real personality that you have to see in person!
Downstairs, the full basement offers 792 square feet with partially finished space. It would make a great rec room, workout area, or storage space, and the professional waterproofing gives you peace of mind that it will stay dry.
Outdoor living is a highlight here. You can relax under the covered patio, grill on the composite deck, or spend evenings in the generous 0.22-acre yard with mature trees all around.
Central air and gas forced-air heat keep the home comfortable in every season. The home is in the Ames Community School District, close to the shopping, dining, parks, and everyday conveniences that make Ames such a wonderful place to call home.
Updates like these, and a bedroom with a secret room, don't come along often. Schedule your private showing today and see why 1417 Grand Avenue could be the perfect place to start your next chapter!...
