About This Home
As of September 2021Welcome home to this sprawling Ankeny ranch, offering roughly 3,000 square feet of finished space!
You will love how spacious this 4 bedroom ranch feels when you take your tour!
The location is excellent! The home is situated directly across the street from East Elementary, has green space behind the home, and is just a short drive to I35.
Inside the home you will find 3 bedrooms on the main floor and 1 more in the finished basement.
The living room is large, and you can walk directly out to the large deck from there.
The kitchen offers plenty of cabinets and counter space, and the dining room table also fits well!
All of the kitchen appliances stay with the home, as does the washer and dryer.
The basement was recently finished and the owner added a very large, rec room and the 4th bed.
You will also find storage space and two separate staircases in the basement.
Compare this square footage to brand new options and this is the clear winner on bang for the buck. Come see it!
