    What's special

    Spacious, completely renovated Des Moines treasure for rent. Built in 1894, originally a house on an acreage outside of Des Moines, it is full of historic details and but also has all the modern updates you'll love. The main floor is open and inviting, with a large kitchen complete with all new cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel fixtures, a living room and family room with lots of natural light pouring in from brand new windows. Also on the main floor is the master bedroom with a walk-in closet and a full bathroom with new tile, fixtures, and vanity. The upstairs has new carpet, three spacious bedrooms, and another completely updated bathroom. New lighting throughout, including recessed lighting, chandeliers in the kitchen and living room, and ceiling fans in all the bedrooms. The house has tall ceilings and beautiful trim, much of it original to the house. The spaciousness of the house and all the beautiful little details will wow you: glass doorknobs, intricate carving and molding on the front door and window trim, mother-of-pearl accent tiles in the main bathroom. Outside, enjoy the row of arbor vitae trees that will grow into a tall privacy fence over the next few years. Red, white, and pink tulips have been planted along with wide exterior of the house to greet you in the spring as you pull up to the garage. The covered front porch, huge covered back deck, and second story balcony provide plenty of space for entertaining and enjoying the weather. 2 car detached garage and a spacious basement that is clean and dry. Quiet neighborhood, minutes from the I-35 and I-235. Pets considered on a case-by-case basis. Tenant responsible for lawn care, snow removal, and utilities. Tenant pays utilities, but house has all new windows and insulation in the walls and attic to help conserve energy.
