    What's special

    **Incredible Value in Urbandale!** This well-maintained ranch is a true gem, originally owned by the builder and his wife until just last year. The current owners, who adored the home, have moved to an acreage, making this beauty available for its next lucky owners. Step inside and you're greeted by a spacious entryway leading to a large living room, perfect for gatherings. The kitchen flows into a bright, sunlit family room with access to a generous wooden deck ideal for outdoor fun. This home is a blank canvas, ready for you to bring your vision to life and make it uniquely yours. The main floor offers two bedrooms and two baths, including a primary suite with an ensuite bath. There's also a large front room that could easily be converted into a third bedroom with the addition of a closet. Convenient main floor laundry is located between the bedrooms. The expansive walkout basement is prepped with mechanical, electrical, and plumbing lines, just waiting for your finishing touches. With a newer roof, you'll have peace of mind knowing one of the major updates is already taken care of. Additional features include durable hardboard siding, an attached 2-car garage, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a park-like backyard. This is your chance to own a home with solid construction, endless potential, and loads of charm.
