Welcome to this inviting 3 bedroom home offering a comfortable and convenient lifestyle in the heart of Grinnell. With a full bathroom on the main floor and an additional half bath in the unfinished lower level, this property offers practical functionality for any household. The contemporary kitchen opens to a dining room and is perfect for gatherings and meals, while new flooring installed in 2025 enhances the modern feel throughout the living areas. A large walkup unfinished attic bonus room provides endless potential for additional living space or storage. The oversized 0.3 acre lot is beautifully complemented by mature trees and a partially fenced backyard, offering both privacy and room to roam. New roof and gutters installed in 2023 provide peace of mind, and the radon mitigation system added the same year further ensures a safe environment. This home sits directly across from Fairview Elementary, with contiguous sidewalks connecting the neighborhood to the wider NE Grinnell area, making it easy to walk to schools and community amenities. Located just two blocks from the Ahrens Park complex and two and a half blocks from Grinnell College, this property places you at the center of it all, blending charm, functionality and location in one appealing package.
