Property Description

Charming and fully updated, this 1.5-story home offers a blend of character, functionality, and long-term value in a convenient Des Moines location. A bright and welcoming enclosed front porch sets the tone, providing the perfect space to relax year-round. Inside, you’ll find fresh, neutral finishes throughout with updated flooring, paint, and fixtures. The main level features a comfortable living area, dedicated dining space, and an updated kitchen with ample cabinet space and room to move. Two main-level bedrooms and a full bath offer easy, flexible living. Upstairs, a spacious finished loft provides endless possibilities for a primary bedroom, office, or bonus living space. The home also includes a full basement with excellent storage and utility space, along with a functional layout that supports everyday living. Extensive updates completed during the remodel include a new roof and mechanicals, offering peace of mind for years to come. A partial tax abatement with approximately 9 years remaining provides significant ongoing savings and added value. Situated on a large corner lot with off-street parking, this property offers room to spread out while still being close to downtown, parks, and local amenities. A great opportunity for an owner-occupant or investor seeking a move-in ready home with updates, character, and built-in financial advantages.
