Rare wooded homesite in the desirable Grand Heights subdivision of West Des Moines. This walkout lot is covered in old-growth timber, offering privacy and a natural, established setting that's hard to find this close to the city. Bring your own builder - there's no requirement to build with a preferred builder, and no HOA dues to worry about. Detached structures, outbuildings, and toy sheds are allowed, giving you flexibility for a shop, storage, or hobby space beyond the main home. Utilities are already in, so you can move straight to design and permitting. A great opportunity to build a custom home on a premium, tree-lined lot in one of West Des Moines' sought-after neighborhoods.
