Welcome to the Smith’s Home! Located in one of the most prestigious neighborhoods in Cedar Rapids. Within throwing distance to Brucemore Mansion and Bever Park. Quiet upscale street. This sophisticated location is hard to beat. Enjoy almost 4,000 sqft, 4 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 3 living rooms, and tons of amenities to make your stay in Cedar Rapids feel like you are living an at home experience. This older home has tons of charm and uniqueness. Great for bridal/baby showers. Ask about an event. Rarely a night goes by that there are not a handful of deer in the half an acre yard. Back patio has a grill and a fire pit. Very spacious back porch. When Brucemore Mansion has an event or a play/musical, you can hear the music from the backyard. Main floor is great for older guests as there is just two short steps at the front exterior of the home to enter and a bedroom and full bathroom on the main floor (as well as another half bathroom on this floor). Main floor- 1 living room, 1 bedroom, 1 full bathroom, 1 half bath Upstairs- 1 living room, 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths Basement- 1 living room, 1 half bath It is a very big home so I understand this description might be overwhelming. I will send a Birds Eye view of the layout of the home to guests. *Main floor description- step out of the foyer and into a hallway, to the right is the living room, to the left is the stairs to upstairs. Further down the hallway is a half bath to the left and straight ahead is the kitchen. To the right of the kitchen is the dinning room which connects back to the living room. To the left of the kitchen is a bedroom with its own full bathroom (tub with shower, not a walk-in) also off the kitchen is access to the mud room (which further leads to the garage) and steps to the basement unfinished side. *Basement description- The unfinished side of the basement has a half bath, laundry, and work out equipment. A door from the unfinished side leads to the finished side of the basement with a living room with tons of games and a tv. There are another set of stairs on this side of the basement to loop back up to the foyer/front door area and there is also a door that connects to the garage. *Upstairs description- At the top of the upstairs, to the right is a third living room with younger kid books and toys. Upon request we can stock the home with more baby seats/children toys/bassinets/high chair. Off this living room a full bathroom (blue bathroom) that also connects to the bedroom with the crib. To the left of the top of the stairs is a hallway that leads to the big master bedroom to the right, another door to the bedroom with the crib, and further back in the hallway is the last bedroom (queen bed) and has a full bathroom right outside this bedroom. ***Please read and understand** This is an older home so there are imperfections: The parquet floor in the kitchen will sometimes have pieces that pop up, not often, but if they do they are easy to put back into place. The double porch doors leading from the dinning room to the porch need a strong pull. The ceiling light in the bedroom with the crib does not work, the fan does and there are two lamps in the room. The upstairs master bedroom (yellow/navy room) has all brand new bathroom plumbing so the first second the water turns on is discolored but only for a second. Our dishwasher is 52 years old, works like a charm but is likely different to operate than what majority are used to. Is very easy to operate, will leave instructions in home booklet in the house. The house was covered in wallpaper which we removed so there are places of minor imperfection of texture on the walls. Most plugins are not grounded or three prong- we will have adapters in the home if needed. A small area of trim missing in the kitchen. Very close to 1st Avenue which has many grocery stores, fast foods, and restaurants. Included in the home booklet in the house is more information on what is close by. Home has central air, gas heat, a wall electric heater in the main floor bedroom, as well as a fan and space heater in the basement you can move if needed. Have a special request? Let us know. We would love to make your stay as comfortable as possible! ****Absolutely no fires in the fireplaces, or any candles. Please do not go out onto the flat roof above the porch.****
