About this home
Welcome to this beautifully updated, sun-drenched ranch nestled on a rare half-acre lot in Des Moines’ Beaverdale/Merle Hay area. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by an abundance of natural light highlighting the gorgeous hardwood floors that flow seamlessly throughout the main level. The spacious living room opens into a formal dining area, creating a wonderful layout for hosting. The updated kitchen features an abundance of storage and counter space, a convenient pantry, and a cozy eat-in area or drop zone. Just outside the kitchen, a massive patio awaits, offering a private oasis for summer BBQs and outdoor entertaining. Three bright bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bathroom complete the main floor. What sets this home apart is the incredible walkout lower level, which offers fantastic potential for a Mother-in-law apartment or an income-producing suite. This second living space comes equipped with its own full kitchen, a spacious family room, a non-conforming bedroom, and a ¾ bathroom, all with separate walkout access for ultimate privacy. Outside, the expansive half-acre property provides a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for pets, gardening, or play. Combining classic charm, modern updates, and unmatched versatility, this unique home is a rare find in a prime location....
