Welcome to a timeless gem in the heart of Des Moines. This three-story beauty blends craftsmanship with everyday comfort. Imagine weekend walks along nearby trails, family bike rides to the marina, or quiet mornings on your own covered front porch, sipping coffee as the neighborhood comes to life.

The kitchen, rich in cabinet space, ties the main level together and loops back to the entrance, where the staircase leads to the second floor featuring three well-sized bedrooms and a full bath.

Outside, the home offers a two detached garage, an extended driveway with access from both the front and alley, and a spacious backyard. With high ceilings, built-in shelving, and detailed woodwork throughout.

    "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. "
