Description

Here's the perfect starter home on Des Moines' East side. It's situated on a triple lot with mature trees. Once you are inside you'll love the original hardwood floors and long list of recent upgrades. You enter into a single open space for your living room dining area and kitchen and you immediately immediately notice the recently refinished floors and the brand new energy efficient windows. The passageway to the kitchen has been enlarged allowing the living room, space for a dining table and the living room all to flow together nicely. Down the hall you'll discover 3 nice sized bedrooms, all with hardwood floors. Across the hall there's a full bath with a ceramic tile floor. There's fresh paint throughout the home. The lower level is finished providing great space for a recreation room. You'll love the brand new carpet on this level. There's also a spacious laundry room on the lower level. You'll really enjoy entertaining family and friends on the huge covered patio. It was poured new in 2009. New energy efficient windows were installed throughout the home in 2017. The home received a new roof in 2009 and the plumbing and electrical service were updated 2007. There's a 2-car detached garage and plenty of room beside it to park your boat or camper. The lot, with many mature trees, is nearly a half acre (0.434) and is completely fenced in. All the work has already been done on this home and it's ready for immediate occupancy.
