    What's special

    This home is located in the desirable historic Lincoln Fairview District in Council Bluffs, just one block away from the Lincoln Monument. A one- story Bungalow/Craftsman-style home, it features three bedrooms, with a walk-in closet in one of the bedrooms, and two bathrooms, one on the main floor and one in the lower level. The home has original woodwork throughout, including oak hardwood floors and a large bay window off the dining room. A gas fireplace in the living room lends a cozy ambience. There is a 4-season room located off the dining room and kitchen with access to the rear deck. An additional deck on the front provides plenty of space for lounging or gatherings. Recent improvements include seven Champion replacement windows, new paint throughout, and refinished hardwood floors. Central heat/air conditioning has a newer furnace, hot water heater and a new Culligan water softener system. The full basement is partially finished which provides lots of extra space for storage or your craft room or even a man cave! New concrete work and main sewer line was completed in July, 2017, from house to city sewer. Garage off alley in poor condition, now used as shed. This house is one of few properties with a continuous driveway, connecting the street to the alley, which provides enviable off street parking. Quiet neighborhood, close to downtown Council Bluffs, area shopping and less than 1 mile to either hospital. This cozy home will not be on the market long! Offer must be accompanied by a pre-approval letter and house is sold AS-IS by appointment only, starting May 10th. Must see to appreciate. Please call Roger Pataky or Carol Pataky at 231.384.7950 to arrange a walk through or email at rogerpataky@gmail.com.
