About This Home

As of March 2025

Stunning condo in the historic Alegre building nestled in Des Moines' oldest neighborhood and known for its rich architectural heritage, Sherman Hill.

Thoughtful details like 5-panel doors, plantation blinds, and crown molding add elegance throughout. Spend your evenings on the private covered deck or enjoying the courtyard with neighbors. The pet-friendly community also offers green space and raised garden beds. This unit comes with a deeded 1.5 stall garage and an additional parking spot.
