    Updated: Open House Sunday May 22, 1-4p. When reaching out please utilize the email 542Kenworthy@gmail.com or Text for quickest response. You’ll feel welcome in a neighborhood where you’ll get a wave & friendly smile or see kids join their friends down the street. The main living room feels open with plenty of natural light coming in the windows on 3 sides with view of the southern sky. An entry porch provides space when you step in to remove shoes and get layers into the coat closet. This for sale by owner is a standard home with unfinished wood floors in the 3 bedrooms on upper level. The main level offers a nice kitchen with lots of cupboard space & a cute bench / pantry room just off the kitchen. There is a partition wall which you may choose to remove & select your own flooring to fill the space. The lower level has a large living space, bathroom with shower, ample laundry area, and additional space for storage. Add flooring to the lower level for additional 540 sq ft. of finished living area. This space has opportunities for a gym, rec room, theater, or playroom. **There is a bonus shed behind the garage which has been great for the mower and lawn care tools. The 2-car garage has a work bench and additional space for toys & storage. You’ll be able to enjoy the amazing sunsets from the brick patio as well as have comfort and peace of mind in the fenced private back yard. You can easily fit a trampoline or playset for hours of fun. **Home updates include Garage siding 10/ 2020 & lower-level bathroom 8/2021 with new tile, plumbing, & vanity. You’ll have a feeling of safety with a radon removal system, the new unit replaced 1/2022. **Touchups to consider but not move-in required are the rear brick stairs, living room flooring, & backyard landscaping. **Home within walking distance of several parks, walking trails, Uptown Ankeny businesses, & the Farmer’s Market. It’s also a quick drive down 1st street to Saylorville lake, parks, & more beautiful bike paths. I appreciate your consideration & hope to see you at the open house!
