This spacious 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom home has everything you'll need to enjoy a fun filled or relaxing time near one of Des Moines most entertaining neighborhoods.

With over 1,500 sf to enjoy, this home provides ample space to unwind and relax or to spend an entertaining time with friends and family. Tons of windows and natural lighting make this home bright and welcoming, and the room darkening shades give you the ability to allow just the right amount of light in for however you're feeling. Two of the bedrooms have king sized beds with king sized pillows, the third bedroom has a queen size mattress, and a pull out sleeper sofa provides additional sleeping space to accommodate the entire crew. Their is a full bathroom on the main floor, and the upstairs bedroom includes a 3/4 private bathroom / en-suite (tub, toilet, and sink) and a walk-in closet. A fully stocked kitchen, equipped with a gas oven, provides for all of your basic needs allowing you to cook up your favorite dishes. A reverse osmosis (RO) system has also been installed to supply high quality water anytime that is great for drinking or cooking. A formal dining room just off of the kitchen provides a great place to eat as a group or serves as a great place to play games. The living room has a large smart TV with reliable hardwired internet access allowing you to watch your favorite shows on your favorite streaming services.

The space is family friendly and has accommodations for children including step stool, baby gate, kid-friendly plates/cups/utensils, and more. The game room is a great place to entertain both kids and adults as it has a ping-pong table, foosball table, table top hockey, and pop-shot basketball with all necessary balls, paddles, pucks, etc included. There is also an exercise area with free weights and an exercise bike so you can get a workout in without leaving the home.

An ADA ramp for the front step is available to be installed prior to guests stay upon request. There is a private double wide driveway for guests use that provides four off-street parking spaces, with on-street parking available as well. Please do not park directly across the street between the "No Parking Here to Corner" signs as this area is not intended for parking.
