About this House

Rarely do homes become available in this neighborhood. All brick, walk-out ranch that backs to Grandview Golf Course. This house has been "home" to only two families since 1966. For a home of this vintage, it has a very open feel. The kitchen is spacious with plenty of cabinet and counter space. Dining area that opens to the patio and back yard. There is also a built-in desk area. Cozy family room with stone, gas fireplace and amazing views of the golf course. Although the county assessor site states this is a 4-bedroom home, there are two bedrooms on the main level and one bedroom in the lower level. Spacious master bedroom with three closets, and
a “Jack & Jill” style bath. The lower level has a large family room, ¾ bath, laundry room and plenty of storage. Large yard with irrigation, stone patio, decorative pond and plenty of perennial plants and flowers. This home has been lovingly maintained but is ready for some fresh updates from its new owner.
3005 E 31st Ct, Des Moines, IA 50317 is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,794 sqft single-family home in Fairmont Park, built in 1966. It last sold for $325,000 on Aug 30, 2024 (3% below the $335,000 asking price). It is currently off market. The Trulia Estimate is $342,600, with a rent estimate of $1,830/month.
