    What's special

    Don't miss this spacious walk out ranch, nestled at the end of a cul-de sac, which sets on a 1.15 acre lot, minutes from downtown Des Moines. This light filled home, built in 1969, and designed by renowned architect, Jack Bloodgood, is ideal for family living and entertaining, with an open floor-plan, high ceilings, and abundant living and storage space. Included in the finished space totaling 3950 sq.ft. are three bedrooms, a laundry room and two and ½ baths on the main level and a fourth bedroom with a ¾ bath in the walk-out lower level. The kitchen and a powder room located off the generous three car garage and adjacent to the family room were remodeled in 2012 with cherry cabinets, pull out shelves and soft close doors, new stainless steel, energy efficient appliances, two ovens, gas range, and a ceramic floor. The main floor laundry includes a new high efficiency washer and dryer. Hardwood floors flow throughout the main floor, which includes a family room with a wood burning fireplace that is open to the kitchen; a wet bar with a beverage refrigerator and ice maker; a living room; dining room and a stately entrance. A large deck surrounded by flowering trees extends the living space on this level, and a brick patio below provides additional outdoor entertainment opportunities. Main floor bedrooms are all newly carpeted. The large master bedroom has a walk in closet, a cedar closet, built in shelves, a full bath and an adjoining office or nursery.
