About this home
Imagine coming home to this Des Moines gem! A completely updated, charming 1940s ranch on nearly 1 acre. Fresh gray siding, brick landscaping, and a Cratsman-inspired front porch welcoming you home.
Step inside to true hardwood floors guiding you into an open living space and updated white kitchen, complete with a full pantry and shiny 2020 appliances (dishwasher, microwave, fridge, stove). All the appliances stay, including the chest freezer. This house features a large bathroom, main-floor laundry, and two bedrooms, with brand-new carpet in the master.
The real magic unfolds out back. This yard, just shy of an acre, features a huge, fully fenced garden already loaded with garlic and herbs ready to pop, along with two new apple trees. And yes, there's even a separate fenced-in area perfect for Fido!
Updates galore over the last six years: roof, vinyl windows, plumbing (all new PEX), electrical, insulation, water heater, septic, whole-house water filter, and sump pump. The garage even has 125 amp service with 220!
Dreaming bigger? Build that extra garage or park a camper. It's an unincorporated Des Moines location within the Johnston School District.
This just isn't a house, it's your Iowa happy place. Call now to tour and snag it before someone else does!
