About This Home
As of June 2025You won’t believe what just hit the market in South Des Moines! Welcome to 1014 Elder Lane — a split-level stunner packed with updates and full of potential... and it’s only available because the current owners are relocating out of state!
Step inside and be drawn in by the sun-filled living room, gleaming stainless steel appliances, and an open dining space that flows right onto a backyard deck — perfect for quiet mornings or evening gatherings.
With nearly 1,200 square feet of finished space, this home offers room to live, work, and relax. Upstairs, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated bathroom that offers both style and comfort. The lower level features a versatile flex space—ideal for a cozy retreat, home office, or expansive third bedroom.
And the upgrades? This home delivers: new windows, new furnace, new AC, new water heater, new garage door, new side entry door, and brand-new washer and dryer. Nothing left to do but move in and make it your own.
A spacious yard with mature trees and an oversized garage offer both beauty and practicality. Surrounded by parks, schools, and neighborhood charm, this home is more than just a place to live—it’s the next chapter you’ve been waiting for.
