About This Home
As of December 2025This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home is more than move-in ready—it’s been thoughtfully updated inside and out to balance modern style with everyday comfort. Step into the open living area, where hardwood floors flow seamlessly into a light-filled kitchen featuring quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and floating open shelving. The spacious layout invites gatherings around the fireplace, casual meals at the breakfast bar, or quiet evenings in. The bathroom was fully redone in 2021 with new tile, beadboard accents, and stylish finishes. The oversized master bedroom is a standout, offering flexibility for a private retreat, office corner, or reading nook. Major updates add peace of mind: new roof (2022), exterior paint (2022), water heater (2022), siding (2023), and garage motor (2025). Even the little details—like fresh interior paint, new hardware, and a new chimney cap—have been taken care of. Outside, the home backs to a wooded creek, giving you privacy and a serene view right in the city. The 2-car attached garage with tall ceilings plus a full unfinished basement provide plenty of storage and room to expand. All of this, plus West Des Moines schools, makes this home a rare find. Come see it in person—the warmth and charm are even better than the photos.
