About This Home
As of September 2021Sprawling ranch in the heart of Ankeny across from East Elementary School, and close to parks, restaurants and shopping! Enjoy the refinished hardwood floors on the main level, new carpet, fresh paint and with new lighting and ceiling fans. Extra large living room with tons of light and a great kitchen with lots of counter space, white cabinets and nice sized dining area. There is an oversized two car garage with large concrete parking pad on back of the home. Southern facing deck with great view of green grass and mature trees. The walkout basement has two egress along with daylight windows and is just waiting for the finishing touches, tons of potential with full bathroom already in place. There is over 2,200 unfinished square feet in the lower level, a great equity builder! Home has metal siding, 3 ft eaves, 3 inch gutters with leaf guard and large shed. A must see property!
