Property Description

JUST REDUCED!!! NO HOA and a lender credit available - ask your agent how this opportunity may benefit you! Built in 1920, this well-maintained home has withstood the test of time, offering solid construction paired with thoughtful modern updates. Inside, enjoy granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, durable LVP flooring, sound-resistant windows, and a 50-year roof for long-term peace of mind. This home was pre-inspected so you can see how SOLID this home truly is. It features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a 1-car garage, blending classic character with comfortable living. A cozy fireplace adds warmth during cooler months. Located at the end of a quiet dead-end road, the property offers exceptional privacy while remaining just minutes from the Des Moines waterfront, marina, beaches, restaurants, and local shops. The generous lot offers future potential, including space to explore a DADU/ADU, detached shop, or 2nd small residence (buyer to verify). The ravine behind the home was previously evaluated by a geotechnical surveyor and determined to be stable. It even withstood the historic rains in December! An added benefit: the land behind the home is YOURS, ensuring lasting privacy with no future development. That means the privacy of this property will always remain in place! This is a rare opportunity where charm, updates, location & potential come together. Come see it, fall in love and move into your next home!
