16711 563rd Avenue, Ames

Own a piece of Ames and Story County history with this historic farm house that was built over 150 years ago in 1866. This home has been lived in and loved by the same family for the last 50 years. Step in the home and enjoy the exposed beams and brick of the family room. Then, take a step back in time as you enter the original part of the house, which includes the family room and main-floor bedroom or office. You'll also find the kitchen, bathroom and another bedroom on the main floor. The upstairs is once again part of the original house and it's where you'll find a great loft area and the third bedroom. Outside on the 1.83 acres is a nature lover's dream. You'll love the wooded and secluded feel of the property, complete with two sheds, a large garden and plenty of green space. The property is also a stone's throw away from Soper's Mill and the Greenbelt trail.
