About this property

Downtown Ames Peaceful Getaway

  • A peaceful space for someone who enjoys the stillness of nature & the chance to see foxes, deer, woodchuck, turkeys & more, while still enjoying easy access to all the fun Ames has to offer! This duplex is nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac, just a short walk to downtown Ames (the library, post office, grocery store, main street shopping, farmers market, city parks, bus line & more), a brief drive to campus, many tasty restaurants, and easy access to highway 35.

    This property is a duplex with two units. This listing is on the main level, and includes two bedrooms, a private bathroom, living room, dining room & full kitchen with a shared laundry room in the basement, and shared outdoor 4-person hot tub with jets. The second unit (the Fox Den) is an efficiency apartment on the lower level. Neither unit has access to the other's space. The only shared area is the laundry room.
