About this home

Welcome to this hidden gem tucked away on a quiet, low-traffic loop just north of the Drake campus! This move-in-ready bungalow rests on a generous, ultra-private 0.356-acre lot (50' x 310'). Inside, you'll find a comfortable main-level living space complemented by an unfinished partial basement for extra storage. Ultra-Low Utilities: Solar panels (no debt) keep energy costs amazingly low, with average combined gas and electric at just $52/month! Garage & Shop Potential: Features a detached garage built in 2017—easily customizable by adding a rear overhead door for seamless access to a future outbuilding. An ideal setup for contractors, tradesmen, or hobbyists needing a dedicated workshop! Includes a thick concrete driveway and an inviting, covered front porch. Situated in the Des Moines Independent School District with quick, convenient access to local parks, neighborhood amenities, and major commuter routes.
