A ranch style house in a quiet neighborhood, this property offers the lucky homeowner(s) the Des Moines Metro with a small town feel. With updated living spaces from a 2019 renovation and a basement bathroom added in 2024, the house makes for a cozy and clean place to live. A spacious fenced-in backyard with large garden plot, built in hammock poles, a variety of native trees and bushes, and the shade of a large Ash tree (treated), the outside may just be more comfortable than the inside! The property is also well situated within walking distance of both the Uptown and Prairie Trail areas including close access to the High Tressel Trail. The home was our primary residence for 4-1/2 years, and we rented to friends for just under 3 years while traveling. Our renters have recently decided to buy a bigger house and will be moving out by September 1st. Showings and purchase are still possible prior to that date. We love our little blue house and would be moving back in if we were planning on sticking around Iowa. Contact us to come take a look, we think you will enjoy it too!
