Move-In Ready Ranch Across from Nelson Park in Slater, Iowa
306 Benton Street | Slater, IA | Ballard School District
Looking for a move-in ready home in a small-town setting with walkability, charm, and a location that stands out?
Welcome to 306 Benton Street in Slater—a well-maintained ranch located directly across from Nelson Park.
Live Across from the Park
One of the most unique features of this home is its location. Step out your front door and you’re immediately across the street from Nelson Park, offering green space, walking paths, and a central gathering place for the community.
From everyday use to seasonal events like the town’s 4th of July celebrations, this location provides a lifestyle that goes beyond the home itself.
Bright and Functional Living Space
Inside, the home features a bright and spacious living room anchored by a large picture window that brings in an abundance of natural light.
A two-sided fireplace connects the living room and dining area, creating a comfortable and cohesive layout that works well for both daily living and entertaining.
Kitchen and Main Level Layout
The kitchen offers ample cabinet space along with a convenient breakfast bar and easy access to the dining area.
The main level includes:
Three bedrooms
One full bathroom
One half bathroom
This layout provides flexibility for a variety of buyers, from first-time homeowners to those looking for simple, functional living.
Lower Level Potential
The unfinished lower level offers an opportunity to expand the home’s livable space over time. Whether you’re looking to add a second living area, workspace, or additional storage, the foundation is already in place.
A half bathroom and laundry area are also located in the lower level.
Outdoor Space and Location
The exterior features a large yard with mature trees, along with both front and back decks that provide space to relax or entertain.
Additional highlights include a one-car detached garage and walkability to local amenities such as Casey's, The Slater Public House, and Ballard West Elementary School.
The home also offers convenient access to Ames and Ankeny, making it a practical option for commuters.
Why This Home Stands Out
Homes with this combination of features and location are not common in Slater. Buyers will appreciate:
Move-in ready condition with fresh paint
Three-bedroom layout
Walkable small-town setting
Ballard School District
Direct access to park space across the street
This home offers both value and lifestyle in a setting that continues to attract buyers looking outside of larger nearby markets.
