Welcome to 817 Crawford Avenue, a home thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom to feel fresh, welcoming, and remarkably easy to live in. Outside, new decks and canopies at both the front and back entries, plus new exterior lighting, welcome you home as the day winds down. Inside, the former galley kitchen has been opened to the main living space, creating a bright, connected floor plan. A beam creates a kitchen island attached to the existing chimney, and the kitchen is completely renewed with new cabinetry, countertops, appliances, sink, garbage disposal, waterproof laminate flooring, and motion-sensor lighting — a space for cooking, gathering, and everyday moments. Restored main-level hardwood brings back warmth and character, while new carpet softens the stairs and second floor. The expanded bathroom has a new tub/shower combination, vanity, toilet, waterproof flooring, exhaust fan, and mirror, and a new closet in the second bedroom adds valuable storage. New lighting, ceiling fans, paint, and plumbing run throughout. The basement adds a wash sink and vanity, a finished division between the utility area and open space, and a newly sealed shower with FRP panels and new baseboard. Even attic access is improved, with a new hatch in the hallway. On about 0.26 acres, the backyard invites gardening, entertaining, play, and relaxation in an established Ames neighborhood. Beautifully remodeled. Thoughtfully designed. Exceptionally inviting.
