The Queen Anne home built in 1880 in Marion, IA, captures the imagination with its intricate details and timeless elegance, embodying the essence of Victorian architectural splendor.

   
For the last 33 years, this fabulous 2+ story home (located on Historic Pucker Street) has been the owners’ own enchanted palace who put their hearts & souls in restoring their home to the original historical state (but with modern upgrades). From the light refracting through the custom leaded glass foyer doors & staircase stained glass windows to the beautifully restored woodwork throughout, this home has so much character it is difficult to pick a favorite part. There are several spacious living areas, the parlor/great room with an 1870’s antique piano that is remaining, to the family room with 2-sided fireplace, the office/library with direct access to a half bath (could double as a bedroom) to the updated kitchen. The kitchen features wood flooring, soapstone counters, breakfast bar, newer cabinets & stainless steel appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is the spacious formal dining room with wood flooring, high ceiling & the beautiful dining room furniture remains. Each of the three large bedrooms offers its own private retreat as well as a full & half bath & second level laundry. The primary bedroom features a sitting area window seat in the turret plus balcony to outside. The living area doesn’t stop at the second level. The third level offers a wonderful surprise! 1940’s wool carpet leads you to a party room & two other additional rooms. There is a newer oversized 4+car garage with easy care hardy plank siding. The house has partial brick (tuck pointed as well as interior foundation) & hardy plank siding, 2022 shingles, zoned heating/AC, some newer windows & new storm windows (all windows have had ropes worked on for ease in operating), up-dated electrical & plumbing, security system & front & back porches. Close to the heart of Uptown Marion to maximize the advantages of this exciting community. They will miss the home, but are happy to share this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a new owner to find their own dream palace & begin new adventures. The home is in fabulous condition, however it is being sold ‘as is’
