About this home
This home is loaded with value and move-in ready!
Located in the heart of Des Moines, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers almost 1,500 sq ft of living space, giving you plenty of room to spread out and make it your own. The finished basement adds even more usable space, featuring a non-conforming 4th bedroom that works great as a guest room, home office, or gym. It’s clean, dry, and versatile, ready for whatever you need.
Inside, you’ll love the modern, comfortable feel. The living room’s large windows fill the space with natural light, while the electric fireplace with a custom accent wall adds warmth and character. The kitchen shines with white cabinetry, a stylish backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances—all about 4 years old and still looking brand new.
This home stands out from the rest with excellent curb appeal, thoughtful updates, and a layout that just feels right. Step outside to a large fenced area surrounded by mature trees, offering privacy and plenty of space to relax or entertain. You’ll also find a 375 sq ft shed—perfect for storage, hobbies, or projects—and a 450 sq ft tandem garage with extra room for parking or a workshop.
Tucked on a quiet, homey street just minutes from downtown, you’ll have the best of both worlds: city convenience with a peaceful neighborhood feel.
If desired, the furniture can even be included—making your move simple and stress-free.
