Built in 1900, just south of Kingman Blvd, this beautiful house has a rich history, home first to the Sprague family, then to the prominent F.M. Park family who lived here for decades. Later converted into apartments, it was remodeled in 2007 as The 1900 Inn, a B&B. The current owners have spared no detail in turning it back into a stunning 2,848 sq ft family home. A lovely 250 sq ft front porch welcomes you to this gorgeous modern Victorian. New quarter sawn white oak hardwood floors were added throughout. It has 4 BR and 4BA, 2 ensuite, one added in 2024. The charming kitchen has an AGA Legacy range and large pantry. An office and bath, two living rooms, and a formal dining room complete the first floor. The owners converted the back of the property from an asphalt parking lot to a professionally landscaped private yard. Geothermal heating and cooling were added, and an EV charging station. And more! Walk to Drake University, shops, and restaurants from this special home.
