Description

Welcome to this beautifully updated all-brick ranch just minutes from downtown Des Moines, Principal Park, and all the everyday amenities you need. This move-in ready home features 3 bedrooms on the main level, plus a non-conforming 4th bedroom in the finished basement perfect for guests, a home office, or extra living space. The kitchen has been fully remodeled with brand-new cabinets, a sleek island, modern tile backsplash, and updated lighting ready for everything from weeknight dinners to weekend hosting. The bathroom has also been completely redone, and throughout the main level, you’ll find refinished hardwood floors, smooth freshly painted walls (no outdated texture!), and all-new light fixtures that bring a fresh, cohesive feel to every room. The layout includes a spacious front living room and a flex/family room off the back giving you options for relaxing, entertaining, or even creating a playroom or creative space. Downstairs, the finished basement offers even more room to spread out and grow into. With solid construction, thoughtful upgrades, and a prime location, this home is a rare find.
