Property Description
Step into a piece of history with this stately 1928 residence built by T.H. Maytag. Timeless elegance meets historic charm in this beautifully preserved Tudor home nestled in a historic neighborhood, only 30 minutes from the Des Moines metro area. With an easy commute, you can enjoy the captivating blend of old-world charm and modern functionality.
This gem showcases a meticulously maintained exterior featuring intricate brickwork, copper gutters, tile roof, ornate trim, and stonework. Sitting on .58 acres, enjoy the view from the brick patio with diverse landscaping including mature trees and perennial gardens. The beautiful gazebo and stone fountain create the perfect outside environment for relaxation. An arched breezeway allows you to stay out of the cold and leads to the attached two car garage.
Light streams into the separate parlor just off the large living room with an ornate Mahogany fireplace and built-ins. The formal dining room is a step back in time to the era of large family gatherings and dinner parties. For more informal meals, the breakfast nook with custom built-ins sits right off the charming kitchen featuring recently updated appliances. The kitchen is complemented by a second staircase for added functionality in this large home. In addition the main level has a half bath, an uncommon pleasantry in a home of this age.
This residence features extensive recent updates and an abundance of spacious living areas, providing a unique living experience. There are 4 large bedrooms on the 2nd level and if that's not enough, there is a huge 3rd floor oasis complete with office, sitting area, and 5th bedroom with potential for an added bathroom.
As you ascend the stunning open staircase with hand crafted iron railings, you are greeted by 4 large bedrooms off the generous landing along with a beautifully preserved full bathroom with original tile work. This treasure offers even more finished living space in the basement equipped with a family room, wet bar, and ¾ bath perfect for entertaining along with a home gym and plenty of storage. Don't miss the unique opportunity to own a piece of architectural history in this excellent family home.
