Often described as the jewel of the neighborhood, this one-of-a-kind home commands attention from its graceful perch on a hill just south of the ISU campus. Perfectly positioned in a quiet pocket of the neighborhood, you're within walking distance to campus as well as Hilton Coliseum, Jack Trice Stadium, Stephens Auditorium, coffee shops, and restaurants-a location that is one of a kind. From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated; a sprawling front porch--one of its most treasured features--offers the perfect vantage point to enjoy lazy summer mornings, the energy in the neighborhood on game days and quiet sunsets. Thoughtfully designed landscaping, filled with lush Hosta and curated perennials, creates stunning curb appeal while the irrigation system ensures effortless maintenance. Inside, timeless character meets refined comfort. Beautiful hardwood floors throughout, bay windows, and abundant natural light create a warm and welcoming ambiance. Historic details including leaded glass, crown molding, and vintage hardware have been beautifully preserved, offering a level of craftsmanship rarely found today. Built-in cabinetry and abundant closets add architectural interest and function. The home has a natural flow and feels spacious with distinctive spaces for dining, socializing, and relaxing. The main floor features a private, enclosed office--ideal for working from home--alongside inviting living spaces designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite and an additional bedroom both feature a cathedral ceiling, adding volume, light, and a touch of grandeur. All 3 bedrooms are spacious; an opportunity for a 4th bedroom exists in the partially finished basement which also has a bathroom and shower. This is not just another home--it's a distinctive property with soul, presence, and a setting that elevates it above the rest. Opportunities like this are rare - make an appointment with your favorite realtor to see it today!
