About this home
Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this 2016 Drake Homes resale offers the best of both worlds with a coveted West Des Moines address & top-rated Waukee schools. Surrounded by mature trees for ultimate privacy, the home’s stunning exterior & lush landscaping, complete with irrigation, set a welcoming tone from the moment you arrive.
Step inside to discover an expansive great room crowned by a vaulted ceiling & warmed by a gas fireplace. The adjoining kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring a batwing island with a composite sink, pristine stainless steel appliances, & under-cabinet lighting. Rounded drywall corners & nine-foot ceilings throughout both levels create a seamless flow, while a generous drop zone off the three-car garage keeps everyday clutter at bay.
The primary suite is a retreat with a soaker tub, tiled shower, separate commode room, & a large walk-in closet. Downstairs, the lower level beckons with three large transom windows, a built-in wet bar, & wiring for surround sound, making it ideal for movie nights or entertaining friends. Two additional bedrooms, each with concrete egress wells, share a full bath, while bonus storage space houses a gun safe. A pool table remains for your enjoyment, making the space instantly livable.
Outside, a colossal deck awaits, ideal for sunrise coffee or summer barbecues. Modern comforts such as an active radon mitigation system, washer & dryer in the main-level laundry ensure peace of mind & lasting quality.
