About this home
Charming and affordable 3-bedroom, 1-bath, 1.5-story home on Des Moines' east side. The enclosed front porch is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors without the bugs. Inside, a bright living room and spacious dining area, both featuring original built-ins and abundant natural light, connect to a large kitchen with a convenient butler's pantry for added storage. Original hardwood floors lie beneath the main-level carpet, ready to be refinished and restored.
Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms with large closets and a full bathroom. A functioning toilet and shower in the unfinished basement add extra convenience. Major updates include all new double-hung vinyl windows (36 total), a new roof (2024), new concrete (2024), and updated HVAC (2019). Mature trees have been professionally trimmed for lower maintenance, and the oversized 2-car detached garage offers plenty of space for storage, hobbies, or tools. All appliances stay.
Located within the Neighborhood Finance Corporation (NFC) lending area—home eligible for $10,000 toward home improvements (no income requirement), 0% interest, and fully forgiven after 5 years of ownership. Conveniently located with quick access to I-235 and I-35/I-80, and a through-street connection to Easton Blvd for easy commuting and nearby amenities.
A well-maintained home with classic character, modern updates, and exceptional value! Information obtained from seller and public assessor site.
