## Description

### Agent Description
Built in 1894 for the comptroller of Drake University, and later moved to 26th St, Stockham House is a landmark home with a rich history. Expertly renovated by Silent Rivers Design + Build, this stunning residence offers historic charm, modern updates, and energy efficiency. Even Better, it qualifies for a 10-year 100% property tax abatement for significant long-term savings. The home features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a luxurious primary suite, and an open-concept main floor. Features include custom cabinetry, soapstone kitchen counters, beautifully refinished original hardwood floors, a spacious drop zone, a new garage, and a charming front porch. The basement with high ceilings and egress windows is ready to finish for extra living space. This home's historic significance, superb craftsmanship, and modern updates make it a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a piece of history with the added benefit of substantial tax savings.
