Overview
Charming Brick Gem in the Heart of Des Moines’ West Side! This well-maintained brick beauty is ready to welcome you home! Step onto the cheerful front porch and into a spacious living room with a cozy fireplace highlighted by a raised hearth and vintage lighting. There are two convenient entry area closets and a sun room that makes a perfect home office or reading nook. Warm woodwork, arched doorways, panel doors with glass knobs and hallway built-ins add to the character of the home.
Just off the living room is a main-floor bedroom and a handy half bath. Head upstairs to find two more bedrooms with ample closet space, plus a full bath. The living room opens up to a dining area then to a sweet and simple kitchen - everything you need, nothing you don’t. From there, step into the 3-season porch - ideal for an evening hangout or mudroom entry. Outside, enjoy a fenced yard with space to garden or relax around the fire pit. The brick one-car garage matches the home perfectly and offers plenty of vehicle and storage space. The basement is clean and dry with epoxy floor - ready to finish for future living space, workshop or exercise room. All of this in a fantastic location just east of the Des Moines Playhouse and the Roosevelt shopping district, with quick access to schools and I-235.
BONUS: This home is eligible for two incredible money-saving home improvement programs—Neighborhood Finance Corporation's forgivable loan program and the Invest DSM reimbursement program!
