Unbeatable location meets incredible value-add potential in Indianola, Iowa! This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch sits on an established through-street less than 3 blocks from Emerson Elementary School, with an easy commute into Des Moines. The 0.33-acre lot backs directly onto the popular Indianola bike trail and includes a back deck overlooking a large, tree-lined yard. Major capital expenses are handled: the roof, vinyl siding, and central air conditioning are all under 6-8 years old, so buyers can focus their budget on cosmetic and lower-level updates instead of big-ticket repairs. The main floor offers 960 square feet, including 2 bedrooms, a functional kitchen/dining combo, and a spacious first-floor laundry room attached directly to the main bathroom - a rare, convenient layout. The lower level is partially finished with 300 square feet, which includes a second full bathroom featuring a spacious tiled shower, bringing the home's finished total to roughly 1,260 square feet. Finishing the remaining lower level and adding cosmetic touches upstairs offers instant sweat equity. An attached 1-car garage and parking pad round out the property. A rare find for buyers, DIYers, or investors looking to build value in Warren County, Iowa.
