About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
G’s Home Away From Home
Forget your worries in this spacious and serene space. Remodeled, 1960’s, 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, nice deck. Guests will enjoy an attached 1 car garage and spacious backyard. Easy to find on the North Side of Iowa City less than a mile from I-80. Short drive to Hawkeye entertainment events and hospitals. Nestled in a friendly quiet neighborhood that provides for all your needs. Grocery store, gas stations, coffee shops, restaurants and park all nearby. Great spot for the traveler on the go.
Bedrooms are average sized as was the style in the 60’s. There are 3 queen beds. Plenty of closet space for hanging clothes or storage. Clock radios, lamps, nightlights and charging stations in each bedroom. One 65” television in the living room and a smaller one in the large bedroom. LED lighted ceiling fans throughout. New appliances. Laundry room. Real hardwood floors in bedrooms. Tiled showers, keyless front entry as well as garage door keypad. 1 1/2 baths are on the main level. The other bathroom is in the basement. It is newly installed and private but the basement itself is not finished. Huge driveway for plenty of off street parking. Garage was built for 1960’s sized cars, so it is a bit short for large vehicles. Front yard is a great place to throw football or play any sport you wish. Overall I think you’ll be hard pressed to find another house this old in such great condition.
You will have access to most of the house and 1 stall of the 3 car garage. Basement is unfinished and I store a lot of cleaning and work supplies in a locked storage room. I put things up and out of the way, but kids are smart be aware of them if playing in the basement. There is a door going to the basement that can be closed and locked if you need.
I live just a few blocks away. As long as I’m around I can be there quickly if there’s a problem. Also have smart locks that I can open doors if you forget the code.
Nice middle class neighborhood. A mixture of all ages but mostly people in their 30’s and 40’s working hard and raising good kids.
Nice Quiet neighborhood. Safe to walk around and enjoy the fresh air. Parking on the street is allowed but not necessary because we have a huge driveway. Easily parks 4 cars
We have a ring doorbell at the front door, a ring camera outside by the garage, and one in the backyard for security reasons. There are no cameras or listening devices inside of the house.
