About the home

Built in 1920 and sitting on a generous lot just over a third of an acre, this Stratford home has been quietly updated without losing the honest character of its age. New flooring runs through the living room, dining room, and kitchen, and a freshened bathroom — new tub surround, vanity, and a medicine cabinet with built-in lighting — makes the daily routine feel a little more considered.

The practical bones are in good shape: a new AC system went in a few years back, the stair railings were just replaced, and a brand-new shed out back gives you real storage or a place to work with your hands. The attached two-car garage handles the Iowa winters. It is the kind of house that has been lived in thoughtfully and is ready for the next chapter.
