Description

You'll never have another opportunity to own a 100+ year old home that's this spectacular. It's been renovated from top-to-bottom using the finest finishes that provide modern living features while retaining the integrity of the period in which it was built. You'll work directly with the homeowner to attain the best possible price. Located on the SE corner of Union Park, just minutes south of Downtown Des Moines, this stately 3-story home is convenient for shopping, dining and all types of entertainment. The curb appeal is fantastic with a brick facade, mature trees, impeccable landscaping and a huge covered front porch that's perfect for relaxing on a nice summer day. You'll greet your guests in an entry foyer with original decorative tiled floor. In a few steps, they'll be in the main living area where they'll immediately notice the marvelously finished hardwood floors and original woodwork that will make you say WOW. The beamed ceilings in the living room are fabulous as is the uniquely beautiful brick fireplace. The windows are huge, bathing the space in natural sunlight. Just off the living room, there's a cozy parlor providing the perfect place to escape to with a good book. The living room is open to a marvelous all-new kitchen that was moved and expanded from another area of the home. It boasts hardwood floors, new custom cabinets, quartz countertops, and a perfectly matched subway tile backsplash. There's an extra-large center island that serves as a convenient breakfast bar for those quick meals on the run. You'll love the new farm-style sink and there's a butler's pantry/coffee station adding to the overall convenience of the room. The stainless kitchen appliances are included. The kitchen is open to a large formal dining area that's perfect for family meals or those special family gatherings around the holidays. Rounding out the main level, there's an all-new perfectly appointed full bathroom with a step-in shower, near the back of the home there's a mudroom with an exit to the rear of the home and there's a bonus room, currently used as a healing room with the homeowner's sauna. There's a front and back stairway to the 2nd level. The marvelous, original oak main staircase located in the living room area is a show stopper by itself. When you take it up to the second level you'll discover 5 large bedrooms, all with wonderful hardwood floors. There's also a beautifully updated full bath that still has the original decorative tiled flooring. You'll discover even more great space to enjoy with family and friends on the 3rd floor. The entire space has been renovated to create a huge carpeted family room with room for TV zone, your favorite game table and more. The yard is almost as cool as the home! The entire yard is meticulously landscaped with brick pathways, boulders, shrubbery, mature trees and much more. There's a large paving brick patio that's perfect for outdoor entertaining and there's a huge 3-car detached garage with concrete paved driveway. All renovations have been completed in the last 3 years and they include new central air conditioning. Don't miss this timeless gem! It's truly one-of-a-kind and as they say: "They don't build them like this anymore!" Call the homeowner directly at (515) 210-3062 to schedule a showing and to maximize your savings.

    "Wonderful older established affordable neighborhood. Nice trees, nice neighbors, nice homes. Most homes in the area have original woodwork, wood floors, built ins. The area is great for all; singles, couples, families, retirees. A great mix of ages. Low crime. My grandmother lived in this area for many years. My parents have owned three homes in the area over the years. Still a favorite area in East Des Moines. Close to downtown, restaurants, shopping, easy access to most main highways. Centrally located. Give it a look."

    "Union Park Neighborhoods bounty of older classic homes at affordable prices, it's proximity to the East Village, and the quality of life that an enormous public park with a variety of intended uses from biking and boating to strolling and a trip to perhaps the largest playground in Des Moines Boundaries, makes this area superb for folks who work down town and don't want to drive their car more than necessary. Overall, it's a very nice place to live. Like most other areas of Des Moines, the educational systems needs improvement. "
