Property Description
Thoughtfully updated for comfort and peace of mind, the home features a new roof (March 2025), along with newer AC, furnace, water heater, sump pump, gutters, and fresh interior paint. The kitchen is both functional and inviting with maple cabinetry, a gas stove, and a hood vent.
The spacious living room is filled with character, showcasing crown molding, hardwood floors, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. A main-floor bedroom adds flexibility—ideal for a home office, den, or guest space.
Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom, plus an exciting opportunity to add a future rooftop deck off the primary bedroom. The finished lower level expands your living space with a large rec room featuring a second fireplace, a fourth nonconforming bedroom, an additional bathroom, and a dedicated laundry area.
Step outside to enjoy a private backyard, all nestled in the highly desirable Waterbury neighborhood—one of Des Moines' most sought-after locations, known for its charm, convenience, and tree-lined streets.
