Charm, character, and a fantastic Des Moines location! This home has plenty to love, starting with hardwood floors throughout the main level, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a dedicated dining area. The spacious kitchen offers plenty of room to work, along with a breakfast bar for quick meals or your morning coffee. Upstairs, you'll find three sizable bedrooms and a full bathroom. The finished basement adds even more living space with a comfortable family room, nicely updated 3/4 bathroom, dedicated laundry room, and storage area. There is plenty of room to relax and entertain outside with two different patio spots, or put your green thumb to work in the large garden space. There's also a bonus enclosed 2 season porch that could add additional living space or be used for a variety of things. The oversized (576 sq ft) two-car garage provides great space for storage, hobbies or most importantly keeping your vehicles warm and dry during the rough Iowa winter! Updates include triple-pane windows throughout, a newer roof & exterior paint, basement waterproofing, radon mitigation, additional attic insulation and a new A/C unit (2023). These owners have loved this home for the last 40 years and are ready to pass it on to the next generation!
