Description

This is a VERY well kept 3 bedroom home in NE Des Moines. The character of the original woodworking has been maintained throughout the home. The main level features a formal dining room and a large front room - all with original oak woodwork and hardwood floors. The kitchen is segregated at the back of the house. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, all with original hardwood floors, and an updated bathroom. There is a mud room off the back and a covered porch off the front of the house. The stucco and aluminum siding look terrific, as does the roof. In the back, next to the alley access, is an oversized 2 car detached garage. This home is offered as is, and will be sold as a SHORT SALE. Only one offer will be submitted to the bank at a time.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "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. "
