About This Home
As of July 2023This cute, West Des Moines ranch comes with updates throughout the main level! A lovely, open floor plan boasts a much improved kitchen that includes a nice sized island, subway tile backsplash and ample cabinet space. The living room is a proper place to relax with a drink and watch a show fireside. Head on into the primary bedroom where a remodeled closet and bathroom await. The 2nd bedroom is adjacent to the guest bathroom, which also is updated with a walk-in tile shower, while the 3rd bedroom and utilities are all downstairs. The shaded, fully fenced back yard comes with a deck that is perfect for grilling and entertaining while also providing a functional shed for your yard equipment. This is a great chance to live affordably in The Knolls neighborhood in the beautiful city of West Des Moines! With so many things within walking distance - trails, parks, schools and fun restaurants - to excellent shopping within a 5 minute drive...not to mention a plethora of solid medical clinics nearby, as well...this residence offers a wonderful opportunity to call home for you and your family.
