Overview

DISTINCTIVE, MANVILLE HEIGHTS TREASURE with appealing cottage-style architecture highlighted with brick, stone and steel roof exterior. Built in 1939 by Robert L. Larson, Iowa’s Attorney General and Chief Justice of the Iowa Supreme Court, this home is steeped with historical significance. With only three owners in its 87-year history, this prize home has preserved integrity with thoughtful updates ensuring contemporary comfort without sacrificing the character of the home. Hardwood floors, glass doorknobs, classic paned windows, built-in bookcases and two fireplaces are original features that create the charming ambience . The comfortable floor plan offers 4 bedrooms (2 bedrooms on main and 2 on upper level), 3 updated baths, formal dining with corner hutch, living room with gas fireplace, kitchen with SubZero, Bosch and Dacor appliances, lower-level family room with gas fireplace and large screened porch surrounded by lush foliage and mature trees. The detached two car garage with additional loft storage is connected to the house by one of the many brick and limestone pathways.
