Description
Welcome home to this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch that checks all the right boxes. Step inside to find refinished hardwood floors that bring warmth and character throughout the main living spaces. The fully updated kitchen with appliances and a fresh, modern design—perfect for everyday living or hosting friends without apologizing for your cabinets.
Both bedrooms offer comfortable space and natural light, while the updated bathroom keeps things crisp and functional. Outside, enjoy your morning coffee or summer evenings on the brand-new deck overlooking the yard—ideal for grilling, relaxing, or letting the dog judge your landscaping skills.
The detached garage adds extra storage and convenience, and the recent updates mean you can move in without a long to-do list (because nobody buys a house to start a full renovation on day one).

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageJoseph Green and Sarah Smith(principal and associate principal)condone bullying and retaliation by teachers on students. Once you say something twice they get mad, refuse to return phone calls or emails, and if you go to the district office they blame the kid becase they are scared silent of the teachers union. Complete and utter failures and cowards as administrators. It's the band teacher who is the bully. 5 phone calls later 5 incidents by the teacher later, it is now the child's fault.Parent Review3mo ago - East High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am thankful to have my daughter comes to Garton! This is my daughter's 1st year as a 1st grader, had moved from South Carolina which she missed so much! But her teacher Mrs Hegwein is doing a great job! My daughter loves her and enjoys going to school everyday! Everyone in Garton Elementary is doing a good job working side by side to make this school a safe and a fun haven for learning! Appreciates the PTA Staffs who are doing their best for the sake of Garton students! More power to Garton Elementary who deserves to be rated as one of the great school of Iowa!Parent Review12y ago
