1713 Beaver Ave, Des Moines, IA 50310
What's special
Classic Beaverdale character meets thoughtful updates in this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home just minutes from the heart of the neighborhood. Inside, refinished original hardwood floors, 7-inch wood baseboards and trim, custom built-ins and plantation-style café shutters preserve the details that make this home special. The remodeled kitchen pairs Craftsman-style shaker cabinetry with granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, GE appliances and a full pantry with slide-out storage. Just beyond, the family room is anchored by a brick fireplace, with a cozy adjoining study that offers the perfect tucked-away spot for a home office or reading room. Even the bath celebrates the home's history with a beautifully refinished original cast-iron tub. Outside, mature landscaping creates a setting that feels established and private, with a firepit and conversation area ready for evenings outdoors. Parking for up to four vehicles adds everyday convenience, while major improvements including a BRAND NEW HVAC system, furnace, hot water heater, dishwasher and a 2017 roof and Pella windows offer added peace of mind. All of this in a central Des Moines location within walking distance of downtown Beaverdale and convenient to Drake University. This stunning home has the original details you hope to find in Beaverdale and the updates you’ll be glad are already done.
