Mid-Century Modern Ranch on the SE Side

 3300 Iowa Avenue SE

Terrific Mid-Century Ranch on a Great Street!

The hallmarks of Mid-Century Modern:
Low-pitched roof
The house blends into the natural environment around it
Large windows
Flat planes, clean lines
This stately Ranch, built in 1954, has retained its original character.
The stacked stone along the front of the house is waiting for your personal touch
when it comes to plantings.  And the stoop at the front door has plenty of room to add even more curb appeal.

Features: 
1613 sq. ft
3 Bedrooms, 1.5 baths
2 stall garage
Fireplace
Coved ceiling
Open floor plan
New water heater
Updated kitchen floor
Some new windows
Unfinished basement for future expansion
Gross taxes: $3538  Net taxes: $3352
Schools: Erskine, McKinley, Washington

The foyer also has a coved ceiling.
The more open floor plan was a change in architecture in the 50's post-war era.

Large windows changed the feel of living spaces, allowing for more light and 
a connection with outdoors.

The combination of windows and the clean, straight lines of the fireplace
are common in Mid-Century Modern homes.


The dining room also has large windows, overlooking the backyard.

The kitchen has kept the original flavor with the original cabinets and cool 50's stove hood with fan and light.  
Flooring has been updated and there are new windows.


You'll love the den at the back at the house, loaded with built-ins and large
windows that look over the backyard.


The half-bath is located off the garage entry, handy for washing up when coming
in from working outside.



The main bathroom has double vanity and a jetted tub.


Who doesn't appreciate a cute laundry chute?










Thanks for taking a tour of this fantastic Ranch!
