Tucked into one of Ankeny’s most welcoming neighborhoods, this home offers the kind of setting people search for but rarely find. From the moment you arrive, the view overlooking Cherry Glen East Pond, along with the mature landscaping and beautifully maintained flower beds, makes it feel special. Sit out front, wave to the neighbors, it’s a tradition here and part of what makes this neighborhood so special. Inside, the layout is open and comfortable with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and a spacious great room filled with natural light. The kitchen is designed for gathering with a large island, corner pantry, and stainless steel appliances that stay with the home. Main-level living is easy with laundry, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms all on the first floor. The finished daylight basement offers an incredible amount of additional space with a large family room, wet bar, full bathroom, and a bedroom. Connected is a versatile bonus room perfect for a home office, playroom, exercise room, or even a 4th non-conforming bedroom. Out back, enjoy a fully fenced yard with mature trees and a zero-maintenance deck built for relaxing evenings and weekend gatherings. This home blends comfort, space, and a setting that’s hard to beat. Located within Abbie Grove Elementary and the Ankeny Centennial school district.
