Pulling into Ankeny's Northbrook neighborhood, you are greeted by a stunning two-story home that speaks for itself. Sitting on a large corner lot of nearly 1/2 an acre, w/ a stucco exterior, a 3 car attached garage & the kind of curb appeal that makes people slow down as they drive by. This is a 4 BR, 5 BA home for sale in Ankeny, IA w/ 3,500+ finished Sq Ft, & it feels every bit as grand inside as it looks from the street. Step through the front door into a grand entryway like you see in the movies. The main level offers both a formal dining room and an informal dining area, a living room with a fireplace & brand new carpet, & a kitchen finished with granite countertops and true hardwood floors. Upstairs, the huge primary suite is a retreat of its own with a jetted tub and a walk-in shower. Both additional upstairs bedrooms have their own attached bathroom, a rare find in any Ankeny home at this price. The finished lower level adds a 4th bedroom, a full bathroom, a second living space and a large storage room. Outside, the fully fenced yard is wrapped in wrought iron fencing and framed by mature trees and fresh landscaping, with a deck for evenings outdoors and an irrigation system to keep it all green. The big-ticket items are done: new roof (2023), new windows (2021), new driveway (2020), refinished hardwood floors, & new main level carpet in 2026. No HOA & quick access to I-35 & the Des Moines metro, this is luxury living in one of Ankeny's most established neighborhoods.
