About This Home

This is the kind of home where buyers walk in and just know. That's exactly what the current owners said about their first walkthrough back in 2021, and it still holds true today. Built new just four years ago, this Grimes split foyer sits on a generous .34 acre corner lot. Only one neighbor on the side, a bigger yard, and more breathing room than the typical neighborhood lot. The layout is the real win. You get the open feel buyers want, but the split level gives just enough separation between the kitchen and dining and the main living area so nothing feels cramped or piled on top of itself. Smart use of square footage that shows the second you step through the door. Downstairs is where this home really earns its keep. The lower family room is open and flexible, stays naturally cooler through Iowa summers, and works for movie nights, play space, a home office, or a quiet retreat. A guest bedroom and full bath round out the lower level so visitors have their own zone. And the storage - a large dedicated storage room you rarely find in a home this size. Add three bathrooms, an attached 3 car garage, a deck off the back, Dallas Center-Grimes schools, and quick access to everyday Grimes conveniences, and you have a home that delivers comfort, function, and value at a price point that's hard to match.
