## Description

### Agent Description
Acreage-style living with space, character, and versatility is ready for its next owner. Located just outside NW Ames and tucked in the trees, this unique two-story home offers 3,000+ sq ft, 4 beds, and flexible living spaces. Step inside to a welcoming main level featuring a formal dining room, spacious kitchen with abundant cabinetry, natural light, and updated flooring, plus multiple gathering areas. Enjoy two separate living rooms-one with a cozy fireplace and built-ins, and another with vaulted ceilings and a striking spiral staircase leading to a loft. Fresh paint in several rooms adds a refreshed feel, and the main level 3/4 bathroom has been updated. The main level also includes an office, laundry, and mudroom. Upstairs offers four generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom, accessed by a traditional staircase for everyday use, while the spiral staircase serves as a unique architectural feature. Outside is where this property shines. The full-length front deck creates a peaceful setting surrounded by mature oak, ash, and pear trees with established perennials. The backyard features a patio connecting to a massive 2,240 sq ft multi-use garage-perfect for hobbies, storage, or a workshop. Major updates include newer roof, siding, high-efficiency furnace, central air, and improvements to plumbing, electrical, and well system. Conveniently located minutes from Lockwood Cafe with quick access to Highway 30, I-35, ISU, and Ames amenities.
