Property Description

A peaceful backyard retreat just minutes from downtown Des Moines. This beautifully cared-for home offers 3 bedrooms on the main level, plus a bonus space upstairs—perfect for a fourth bedroom, home office, or creative hideaway. Recent updates include a newer roof and siding, giving you confidence from day one. The real surprise is out back: a huge, private yard that feels tucked away from the world. Whether you’re hosting summer BBQs, building a garden, or enjoying quiet mornings, this space delivers—with regular sightings of foxes and local wildlife adding to the serene setting. A walkout basement, unfinished but solid, offers incredible potential for future living space, storage, or a workshop. All of this just minutes from downtown, schools, restaurants, and everyday conveniences—where calm living meets city access.
