Home on the hill! located on top of a southern exposed street so the snow will melt quickly, on an oversized large lot. This fully fenced yard backs right to the Van Meter city park. The kids can run out the back yard and play all afternoon with their friends at the park, which also features a disc golf course. This 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, two-Story home includes an extra large concrete pad on the side of the home for ample parking or boat storage. Storage garage (new roof 2026) in the backyard will provide plenty of additional space for yard tools or toys. You'll be in the highly sought after, Blue Ribbon School district of Van Meter Schools. This is a family friendly, quiet neighborhood. Van Meter is less then 20mins to the Jordan Creek Mall and all the surrounding amenities West Des Moines has to offer.
You'll love the high vaulted ceiling upon entering the home, and the large home office with beautiful french glass doors. The living room lets in an abundance of natural light with the large arched windows. Call us for more details or to schedule your showing today.
