About this property
Historic farmhouse on an acreage in Marion
This historic 1910 farmhouse is very well maintained with original beautiful hardwood floors, woodwork, built-ins and windows, situated on 4.5 acres less than 1.5 miles from downtown Marion and on the edge of Cedar Rapids. In town for a sporting event? The property is 10 minutes from Tuma Soccer Complex and Prospects Meadows. There are lots of trees and the privacy will make you forget you are still in the city. The Boyson Trail is accessible through the neighborhood across Boyson Rd.
The parlor with its antique décor will make you feel like you have been transported back to the early 20th century. When you are ready to return to the 21st century the den is decked out with comfy couches, a big screen TV and a real wood burning fireplace, high speed wireless Internet is available throughout the house.
Four spacious bedrooms one queen, two kings, and a room setup for the kids with a bunk bed (twin over full with a trundle twin). All bedrooms are on the second floor.
Full kitchen with everything you need to make a home cooked meal. Dishwasher, electric stove top, oven, microwave, fridge, freezer, and coffee maker.
You have full access to the house. The third floor attic is open but unfurnished.
You are free to explore the 4.5 acre property during your stay. The drive is ‘L’ shaped with two entrances and plenty of parking. There is a large fenced in area, concrete pad with fire pit, original 1910 barn and renovated stable. The stable is a wide open 1000 sq ft space with a wood burning heater and LP heat. Contact the host if you would be interested in renting this space. The barn is currently under renovations and off limits to guests. If you would like a tour, contact the host and we will do our best to accommodate.
