Cute and cozy ranch home nestled in the heart of Ankeny. Main level is completely updated yet so charming with the original hardwood floors and beautiful wood doors. Gorgeous kitchen with gas stove, double oven, quartz countertops and tile backsplash. Large addition off the kitchen has an abundance of natural light and could be used as a formal dining room, office & more. Newer windows throughout. 3 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom complete the first floor. Remodeled bathroom features an oversized, tiled bath/shower. Unfinished lower level with more than enough room to hang out and ample storage space. Newer washer/dryer included. Basement has anchored walls that come with transferrable lifetime warranty. 1.5 car detached garage. Fully-fenced yard, large deck and patio—the perfect place to host guests!
