Steps from the Shops at Roosevelt and the Grand and Ingersoll corridors, 855 41st Street puts the best of Des Moines right outside your door. Original hardwood floors and rich wood trim set a warm, timeless tone throughout. The main floor offers two bedrooms and a full bath, with a partially finished basement adding a non-conforming bedroom, 3/4 bath, and lots of storage space. Two enclosed porches — a 4-season retreat in front and a 3-season escape out back — plus a tuck-under garage round out this charming home.
The updates speak for themselves: new roof (2022), new furnace (2022), new water heater (2026), twice-yearly HVAC tune-ups, professionally cleaned ducts, restored masonry steps, and updated appliances throughout.
Meticulously maintained and move-in ready. Schedule your showing today!
