About This Home
Ask me about a 1.5% grant at closing with our preferred lender! Affordable homes in West Des Moines often come with trade-offs—needing significant work, being in a less-desirable location, or offering limited space to grow. This home avoids all three. A wide open entryway welcomes you in and flows seamlessly into a spacious main level designed for entertaining. The living and dining room are open to each other with large gatherings or everyday life in mind. The updated kitchen anchors the space, taking the guess work out of meal prep. The finished basement adds valuable additional living space, perfect for movie nights, game days, a home office, or guests. Important updates provide peace of mind, including a furnace replaced in 2022 and exterior paint completed in 2025, making this a move-in-ready option rather than a project. With room to grow, thoughtful updates already completed, and spaces that truly support entertaining, this home stands out as a rare affordable opportunity in West Des Moines.
