About 5 S Johnson St
Apartment attached to a historic home in AMAZING LOCATION with private entry! 3-4 blocks from the Old Capital building and the heart of downtown Iowa City. Super close to campus! 1 block from College Green Park. Down the street from New Pioneer Coop. Renovated summer 2022 with brand new cabinets, countertops, sink, faucet, oven/range and over the range microwave in the kitchen. Brand new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. Attractive decorative lighting. 4 new windows. Fresh paint and wall texture. Super cute apartment with good sized living room. The bedroom is very small, but there’s a bonus space to be used as an office or storage. Built in dresser and closet into the hallway (not pictured). Sun room off the kitchen for additional storage or sitting room. Erica Mason
