About this home

A rare historic Drake renovation with the charm buyers love and the major updates they hope to find. This beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 3-bath home blends timeless character with extensive modern reconstruction, including a new foundation, roof, windows, mechanicals, updated systems, and a new 2-car garage. The brand-new lower level sets this home apart, offering 9-ft ceilings, large egress windows, and room to create additional bedrooms, a bath, and a living area in the future. The open main floor, inviting kitchen, spacious drop zone, 10-year tax abatement, and future lower-level potential create an exceptional opportunity near Drake University, local restaurants, downtown, and ongoing Invest DSM neighborhood reinvestment. All information obtained from seller and public records.
