317 Windsor Dr

On a quiet, tree-lined street in east Iowa City, with easy access to downtown, this partially brick home was solidly built in 1962 with a sizeable addition in 1995. In 3,340 sq. ft., the house offers five bedrooms and three full baths. Through the foyer's French doors, the main level offers an open floor plan comprised of the living room with a fireplace; kitchen with a built-in desk, stainless-steel appliances, and custom cabinetry; dining area with skylights; family area (one of two), and four-season sunroom with restful backyard views. Six steps up from the main level are the primary bedroom with an ensuite bath and large walk-in closet; three additional bedrooms that share a hallway full bath; and a 48-sq. ft. linen closet. Six steps down from the main level to the first part of the lower level is a wall of extra closet storage along a hallway leading to a separate entrance. This sunlit level can serve as an apartment for aging parents, a live-in health provider, or an au pair. It has a fully-equipped kitchen, full bath, bedroom with hardwood floors, and a living room currently used as a second family room. Six additional steps down is a recreation room currently used as a music teaching studio and second exercise area. This is adjacent to a large room for the laundry area, mechanicals, and additional storage. With many rooms and a nice backyard--this property embraces activities--generous space for daily living and entertainment in the main level's open plan and 13-window sunroom, plus private spaces elsewhere. The sellers are the home's original owners, and they have lovingly maintained it. The next owners will be equally proud as they enjoy the wonderful attributes of this property.
