About 209 30th St Dr SE, Lower Unit

Beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 1-bath first floor unit in a two-story duplex at 209 30th Street Dr. SE, Cedar Rapids. Enjoy more than 120 years of character and beauty, thoughtfully preserved while updating the home with modern amenities and finishes.

The kitchen features gray cabinets, butcher block countertops, floating shelves, a custom backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Carrara marble-look tile flows from the kitchen into the beautifully updated bathroom.

Original details include restored hardwood floors, French doors, a large pocket door leading into the main bedroom, and a leaded-glass window. A living room chandelier and updated lighting throughout complement the home's historic charm. Central air conditioning and heat provide year-round comfort.

Additional improvements include updated energy-efficient windows, roof, siding, gutters, and a sound-reducing layer beneath the upstairs tenant's flooring. Extensive renovations bring modern comfort to a home full of historic character.
