Description
Rare opportunity to own a storybook English Cottage in the historic Riddle Highlands neighborhood of Aurora. Set on an oversized lot with mature trees and established landscaping, the home showcases beautiful brick and stone detailing that reflects the craftsmanship and charm that make this historic enclave so special. A welcoming foyer opens to a den, a spacious living room with gas fireplace, and a large eat-in kitchen with refaced cabinetry, solid surface countertops, and easy-care flooring. A formal dining room and first-floor screened porch provide additional space for everyday living and entertaining, while large windows fill the home with natural light. Upstairs you will find generously sized bedrooms with remarkably large closets and access to oversized attic storage. Carpeting on the stairs and second floor was installed in 2024. Plaster walls, hardwood stairs, and hardwood flooring beneath much of the carpeting add to the home's original character. The finished basement offers additional living space with a wood-burning fireplace, knotty pine accents, and a side alcove ideal for gaming, reading, or office use. The unfinished laundry and mechanical area provides ample storage and includes a commode. Outside, the partially fenced yard features a brick patio, brick garage, and concrete driveway surrounded by mature landscaping and garden space. This character-filled home is ready for its next chapter in one of Aurora's most distinctive historic neighborhoods. Property is being sold as-is.

About this area
Find homes for sale in Aurora, Iowa and learn about the local community and real estate market.
Aurora has a rich history that extends back centuries and is steeped in heritage. It was initially founded as a settlement by pioneers looking for a place to thrive in the Midwest. Officially incorporated in 1889, as time passed, the city’s small-town identity and atmosphere thrives, although the population is under 200. Rich in farming, historic sites and monuments, and a plethora of recreational activities, Aurora is conveniently located near larger cities for modern amenities.
Aurora City Park is a popular amenity for locals and nearby residents alike, where you can enjoy the trail, playgrounds, pavilions for gatherings, and a truck and tractor pull track. Looking to expand their outdoor activities, locals can take a short car ride to the 2,000 acre Backbone State Park where boating, fishing, hiking, and rock climbing are popular pastimes. And, of course, this close-knit community is no stranger to annual events. From the fireworks show in July to the Fall Vendor and Craft Show, there is something for all to relish throughout the seasons. Community members can also join local clubs that host social gatherings, fundraisers, and other events, such as the American Legion, the community fitness center, and the volunteer fire department.
Neighborhoods are much like what you would imagine from many years ago – farms tucked away amid green pastures, tree-lined country roads, and a few pockets of neighborhoods with tree-lined streets where everyone knows your name and welcomes you.
