Description

Great bungalow with Arts & Crafts era details in the Grandview College neighborhood. The oak woodwork is unpainted and gives the home charm and warmth. Hardwood floors in the main living areas, new tile floors in the kitchen and bath. The furnace was updated with a Goodman 96% energy efficient and heat pump with air filtration and humidifier (2006 & 2007). Approx. 1,000 sq. ft. make the living/dining area very roomy. The convection oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave will all stay for the new owner. There is an attic fan that makes very comfortable air flow in summer, especially on cool nights. Enjoy the fireplace on these chilly fall nights. There is an enclosed front porch and a deck off the back that expand the living area. Full dry basement makes for ample storage and laundry area.

    "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. "
