About this House

This charming ranch in North Des Moines offers easy one-level living with a layout that just makes sense. Situated near Brubaker Elementary, Hoyt Middle School and the Copper Creek Golf Course, the location is as practical as it is convenient. The open living room is filled with natural light from an abundance of windows, creating a warm and welcoming space from the moment you walk in. Around the corner, the kitchen features updated white cabinetry that gives the space a clean, modern feel. Step off the kitchen onto the deck and take in the view of the generous 0.33-acre lot, offering breathing room from neighbors and plenty of space for summer gatherings, lawn games or simply enjoying the outdoors. Back inside, three spacious bedrooms and a full bath round out the main level, keeping everything you need on one floor. Downstairs, the finished basement adds valuable flex space that works perfectly for movie nights, game day watching or entertaining guests. A brand new roof and an oversized two-car detached garage add peace of mind and practicality. With some light cosmetic updates like fresh carpet, this home has all the bones to feel completely brand new.
