About This Home
As of October 2021Wow! Here is a rare opportunity to own an in-town acreage with a sweeping view of downtown Des Moines and Gray's Lake. This well-maintained ranch with over 1900 square feet is located on top of a wooded bluff near MacRae Park and sitting above Thomas Beck Road. The moment you walk through the door you will be impressed with the amount of care that has gone into maintaining this 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom home. This home can be purchased as a primary residence for anybody looking for an in-town acreage, or it could potentially be a development opportunity; offering one of Des Moines' last remaining developable downtown views. Two parcels included in the sale of this home 06449-001-000 (4.18 acres) and 06450-000-000 (0.998 acres) for a total of 5.178 acres.
