Welcome home to this great ranch house in a fantastic West Des Moines location! Step inside to a bright main level featuring fresh paint, new doors, hardwood floors, and a layout that just works. The kitchen was fully renovated in 2024 and shines with updated cabinets, quartz countertops, and all newer appliances. The main level bathroom was updated in 2024, giving the home even more of a clean, modern feel. You’ll love the good sized family room, perfect for relaxing or entertaining and the dining area just off the kitchen. Three bedrooms and the aforementioned updated bathroom round out the main level. Downstairs, the lower level adds even more usable space with a bar area, entertaining space, and an additional 3/4 bath. There is plenty of storage and a large laundry area to give this home over 2,000 total sq ft! Big-ticket items are already handled for you as this home features a newer AC and furnace, new roof in 2022 and various other updates that will show pride of ownership. Outside you’ll find a spacious backyard with room to play, garden and the space to let your pets roam free with the fully fenced in yard. The covered patio is the perfect spot for grilling or hosting, and the oversized (576 sq ft!) 2-car detached garage keeps your cars warm and dry during these Iowa winters or provides room for a shop. Centrally located in an awesome West Des Moines neighborhood, near restaurants, shopping and interstate access.
