Great space and great location for this SW Des Moines 4-level split home! Three bed, 3 bath, 2 car garage. On the top level there are three bedrooms and a hall bath. Also, unique for this time period, there is a good sized 3/4 bath off the master bedroom. Good space on the main level living area with a full/designated dining area. Kitchen has been updated at some point and has plenty of cabinets and workable space. On the next level down, there is also a family room with a converted gas fireplace - and just off the family room is a very nice and bright sunroom! This is a great area, and quiet, too!
