About this House

Welcome to this well maintained home in an amazing Des Moines location! Step inside to discover a unique floor plan with gleaming, refinished hardwood floors throughout and some fresh paint. The main floor features a spacious master bedroom with its own attached half bath, and an additional bedroom with a recently updated full bathroom. Upstairs, you’ll find a 3rd bedroom with a 4th non-conforming bedroom in the basement! Enjoy cooking and hanging out in the light filled kitchen with eat-in area. Downstairs you’ll find a fully finished basement, perfect for entertaining in the large second living space and the wood burning fireplace is a nice touch for both practical and aesthetic purposes. The aforementioned non-conforming 4th bedroom could double as an office space or playroom. There is a 1/2 bathroom framed in the laundry area that could be a good basement addition to the basement. Outside, you'll love the expansive, newly refinished 400 sq ft deck, great for summer barbecues or relaxing evenings. The oversized (704 sq ft) garage offers tons of space for keeping vehicles warm in the winter, storage, or having a workshop. New roof on both garage and carport! The nicely sized yard provides room to play, garden, or unwind. Located in a fantastic, central area of Des Moines close to parks, schools, shopping, and more!

    "Great Character in the homes. People are super friendly and you will likely see them outside doing one thing or another. We’re close to the interstate and very centrally located."
  • Janis C.
    "Beaverdale is the hidden gem of Des Moines. Wonderfully unique and character filled houses, beautiful big trees and fantastic people. It is like a little village - safe friendly and outstanding to live in. Close to everything but hidden enough away to feel that it is it's own place."
  • kylepedersen
    "The "Chamberlain Heights" neighborhood in the Waveland Park Association is fantastic! Neighbors are active with yearly block parties and you meet so many people as they walk their pets, or stroll over to the Shops At Roosevelt."
