    What's special

    Huge storage roomBeautiful original hardwoodsFully fenced backyard
    Straight out of a storybook. Tucked on Lower Beaver Rd in Des Moines (just shy of Johnston), this ranch has character around every corner, starting with the landscaping that’s been lovingly curated for decades. The kind of yard you can tell someone loved. Step inside and you’ll find a home that’s clean as a whistle and cared for top to bottom. Carpet runs through most of the main level, but peek underneath and you’ll find beautiful original hardwoods waiting for their comeback. A true hidden treasure. The main level offers 3 bedrooms and a full bath, all the vinyl windows are in great shape, and the kitchen features a brand new fridge plus a sliding glass door that opens right out to the deck and fully fenced backyard. Hello, summer nights. Downstairs, the partially finished basement gives you bonus hangout space plus a huge storage room with an active radon mitigation system already in place. Foundation? Solid as a rock. Top of the line seamless gutters and rain guards keep everything clean and dry down there. The one stall garage fits a larger vehicle with room to spare for all your extras. Homes with this much heart are rare in this price range. Come see it for yourself and fall in love! No offers to be reviewed until Tuesday, May 26th.
