## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome home to 635 Ellston Avenue in Ames, IA! Built in 2021, this Happe Homes two-story offers 2,400 finished square feet on an expanded 90x130 corner lot in Sunset Ridge, with direct subdivision access to the pond. A two-story foyer with transom and sidelight glass leads to a white staircase with black metal balusters, and double glass French doors open to a main-floor office with a door that closes. Luxury plank floors run through the open great room and its gas fireplace with full-height shiplap. The kitchen offers a pendant-lit island, hard-surface countertops, tiled backsplash, stainless appliances (all included), a huge walk-in pantry and a pond view over the sink. A half bath and a drop zone with built-in lockers finish the main level. All four bedrooms and the laundry room sit upstairs. The primary suite offers a tray ceiling with crown detail, a large walk-in closet with custom shelving and an en-suite bath with dual sinks and a tiled walk-in shower. The 1,092 sq ft lower level is framed and insulated with tall ceilings, full-bath rough-ins, two egress-ready window wells with covers, passive radon mitigation and an upgraded sump pump, ready to finish. Outside, a covered stone-accent porch, a wood deck down to a yard enclosed by a six-foot privacy fence, a professionally built 8x12 shed and a finished three-car garage. Ames Community School District, near walking paths and minutes to Iowa State University, Lincoln Way and Highway 30.
