624 Carroll Dr SE, Cedar Rapids, IA, 52403

Rare opportunity describes this stunning, modern home that has been extensively renovated to create a fantastic melding of contemporary, transitional and rustic design styles, which make this home feel special, unique, modern, and elegant yet also warm and welcoming! First, the location must be acknowledged right in the heart of the city in close proximity to some of the most exclusive, prestigious homes in all of Cedar Rapids, but separated enough by space and woods to feel more rural and private. The list of upgrades this home has received recently is long, shows great attention and intention, and includes a new kitchen with custom quality, hand-crafted cabinetry made by a local cabinet maker, quartz countertops, neutral-colored and stacked subway tile backsplash, newly created coffee bar with custom floating shelves, and an enormous, reconfigured island with plenty of prep space and seating (2023); two of the four baths were upgraded in 2023 and also have custom, quality, hand-crafted cabinetry; the other two bathrooms were totally renovated in recent years as well; new siding (October 2021); new roofing (October 2021); new furnace (2013); new a/c (2013); new trim package throughout, including baseboards, door trim, window trim, interior doors, and even the door handle levers and hinges have been replaced (2023); new paint throughout, even in the garage (2023); new luxury vinyl plank flooring (2023); new carpeting throughout (2023); new decking and railings on the upper deck (2023); newly created lower level deck overlooking the wooded back yard and firepit area (2023); sunken living room reshaped to create a larger dining space (2023); nearly all light fixtures have just been replaced along with every electrical switch, switch plate, outlet and outlet plate throughout (2023); new garage door (2023); new ceiling fan (2023); and the electrical throughout the home was just inspected by a professional, licensed electrician to make sure all the electrical is in tip top shape (2023). With all of this new, one should not forget the original features of this home that give it a warmth, uniqueness and depth that balance how this home feels, including the richly-colored, stained knotty pine all over the ceiling of the great room and extending over the second story balcony and staircase; the barn boards soaring over the fireplace with unique, diagonal orientation; the limestone hearth; and the staircase balustrade to name a few. With this much included at this price, it's a must see!!
