About This Home

Welcome to 1761 Des Moines Street – a fully updated 2 bed, 1 bath bungalow just minutes from the heart of the East Village and downtown Des Moines. This home was completely renovated in 2023 with new windows, siding, doors, flooring, A/C, and more, offering all the modern comforts without the price tag of new construction. In 2024, the property was further upgraded with brand-new ductwork. Inside, the layout is bright, functional, and efficient—ideal for both first-time buyers and investors seeking a clean, turnkey property. Located in the Capitol East neighborhood, you’re under 10 minutes to local coffee shops, restaurants, parks, and the vibrant energy of the East Village.
