About this home
Rare opportunity to own a home on one of Des Moines' most iconic streets, Polk Boulevard. This beautiful brick two story has all the updates where you want them and all the classic style still in place. Walking through the front door you will be taken aback by the beautiful woodwork showing off the classic fireplace at the center of the room. Flowing through the decorative dining room you step into the fully remodeled kitchen featuring a huge center island and high-end appliances. A remodeled half bath with laundry completes the first floor. Heading upstairs you come to the primary suite with a full bath and oversized closet not typically found in homes of this age. There are 3 additional bedrooms as well as a large solarium space perfect for an office or playroom. Another full bath means no sharing space in the mornings. The recently finished basement is beautiful with a family room w/ wetbar as well as a separate workout room. It's also been stubbed for a bathroom for future improvements. Outside you find multiple patio spaces as well as a 2-car heated garage. There is also invisible pet fencing around the entire perimiter of the yard. New roof & gutters, 100% updated electrical, and complete basement waterproofing add to the upgrades on this home. Schedule a showing today!
