    What's special

    Breakfast nookFenced yardMature landscapingSpacious kitchenSeparate dining roomOpen-concept main levelCozy gas fireplace
    Welcome to 1851 Merle Huff Avenue, a Norwalk home with no immediate neighbors to the back — just green space and water for a view that feels private, without losing the perks of a great neighborhood. Built in 2003 and lovingly maintained ever since, this 4 bed, 3.5 bath home is truly move-in ready. The open-concept main level offers a comfortable living room (complete with a cozy gas fireplace) and separate dining room for celebrations and holidays, flowing into a spacious kitchen and breakfast nook flowing into the living room. Upstairs, laundry day just got easier, and the primary suite is a true retreat with an en-suite bath and walk-in closet. Two more bedrooms upstairs share their own full bath. The finished basement adds a 4th bedroom, ideal for guests, an office, or multigenerational living — giving this ~1,930 sq ft home options that are hard to find at this price. Recent updates include a new furnace, AC, and appliances, so the big-ticket items are done. Out back, the fenced yard and mature landscaping create a private oasis backing to green space and water — perfect for morning coffee or letting the kids and pets run free. Enjoy the Norwalk school district, plus quick access to new restaurants, the Norwalk Sportsplex, shopping, and a short commute into Des Moines. Homes like this don't come around often — let's get you in to see it.
