    What's special

    You're going to love this amazing 2-bedroom starter home in an established neighborhood on the North West Side of Des Moines. The location is fantastic, just minutes south of Merle Hay Mall, the heart of Urbandale and countless restaurants. This marvelous brick bungalow is in awesome move-in-ready condition and could be just the home for you! The curb appeal draws you inside where you'll find a nice-sized carpeted living room with plenty of windows to provide great daylight. There's a dine-in kitchen that's been updated with fresh paint. The countertops are laminate with a tile backsplash. There's a pantry and the stainless appliances stay with the home. There are two good-sized bedrooms, both with original hardwood floors. One includes a sliding door exit to a concrete patio, perfect for grilling. It overlooks an extra deep backyard, providing lots of privacy when entertaining friends and family. There's a single full bath with a combination tub/shower. While the lower level of the home is unfinished it's spotless. It almost sparkles. You'll love the unique epoxied floor. The space is divided into three distinct areas that would be easy to convert for a variety of uses. One distinct area contains the laundry. The washer and dryer are included with the sale. Outside, there's a concrete driveway leading to a 2-car detached garage and there's a utility shed behind the garage. This home has been professionally pre-inspected to assure everything is in great working order. It's a gem, offered at a great price. Don't miss your chance to make it yours.
