About this home

Perched atop the historic Alegre Building, Residence #5 offers the most commanding view—an uninterrupted panorama of the Des Moines skyline. At sunrise, the city glows in soft gold; by night, downtown transforms into a sweep of magical lights. With 18 windows, this top-floor residence is filled with natural light and skyline views that evolve throughout the day and seasons. Historic architecture defines the interior, featuring tall ceilings, detailed millwork, original hardwoods, and a decorative fireplace. Unlike many turn-of-the-century homes, this residence has been comprehensively updated. Recent improvements include fully refinished hardwood floors, premium interior paint, new LED lighting and fixtures, a custom dining room built-in. The kitchen and laundry have been thoughtfully modernized with all new Energy Star appliances, quartz countertops, porcelain tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, new sink and faucet, garbage disposal, reverse osmosis system, and washer/dryer.
