Home Details

Steps from Drake University and surrounded by ongoing neighborhood revitalization, 3101 Cottage Grove is primed for transformation. Currently a 7 unit building, it shines brightest as a candidate for conversion back to a stately single family home. The property sits within an Invest DSM program area making it eligible for grants, reimbursements, and low interest rehab loans plus NFC Advantage Lending benefits that can offset renovation costs. Historic homes nearby have already seen significant value growth, fueled by preservation efforts and new local businesses. City code upgrades for electrical and HVAC are required for continued multifamily use, but those same improvements can anchor a top tier single family redesign. Bring your vision and capture this rare location plus funding opportunity. Property sold as is; buyer to verify all incentives and requirements.
