About this home
NO HOA and a lender credit available—ask your agent how this opportunity may benefit you. This hidden gem has truly stood the test of time, offering solid construction paired with thoughtful modern updates throughout. Inside, you’ll find granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, durable LVP flooring, sound-resistant windows, and a 50-year roof, providing both style and long-term peace of mind. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a 1-car garage, this home blends classic character with everyday comfort. Nestled at the end of a quiet dead-end road, the property offers exceptional privacy and a peaceful setting while remaining just minutes from the Des Moines waterfront, marina, beaches, restaurants, and local shops. The generous lot presents endless potential, with space to explore adding a DADU/ADU, detached shop, or even a second small residence (buyer to verify). As the seasons change, cozy up to the fireplace and enjoy warm, inviting evenings at home. This is a rare opportunity where charm, updates, location, and future possibilities come together-making it a truly special place to call home.
