Two-story condominium on the river, available now ... and oh its a goodie! Every photographer in the city knows this iconic view, as this is one of the most photographed destinations in the metro. This renowned backdrop for brides + grooms + graduating seniors is the very same view you would get. The whole home has perfect looks of the Capitol + the DSM River. The Union RR Pedestrian Bridge too, which is popular amongst downtowners as it provides a scenic cantilevered overlook, perfect for a good sit or a bit of fishing. Another exciting + special addition to the area: the ICON water trails. Very soon the area will be splish-splashing w/kayakers right here. Only a few homes along the Riverwalk will get up-close views of this new downtown Iowa pastime ... and you could be one of them. Home can be accessed a few ways; it has a private walk-up entrance w/a wide stoop facing Water Street or enter in the climate controlled underground parking spot w/built-in storage, elevator +secure access from the hall. Main floor has 10' ceilings, kitchen, dining, island, 1/2 bath + enormous nearly floor to ceiling windows. Upstairs enjoy a loft/flex-space, 2 bedrooms, bath w/soaking tub, laundry + a charming balcony nestled in the treetops. Strong association w/well-kept gardens + community space, HOA covers water, recycling, snow, maintenance + reserve fund. Steps from the Farmer's Mkt + just a short trot to Principal Park or the Civic Center. What an opportunity.
