The original woodwork and detailing throughout were once described as "far surpassing any of the houses" remodeled or flipped nearby-and it's true. If you value authentic quality and tasteful historic character over painted reproduction flash, this home will speak to your soul. This property has never been flipped-it's been lovingly preserved. Every update has been done purposefully and with respect for its heritage. The gleaming hardwood floors, Edison light fixtures, and stunning stained-glass window remain intact, celebrating the home's old-world charm. The remodeled kitchen provides modern function while honoring its vintage roots. The finished attic is a peaceful retreat that can be a primary or teenagers dream space.. A 3-season room opens to the fenced backyard, and the original carriage house has been converted to a 3-car garage with loft storage. The fireplace has been updated with gas logs, retaining its historical centerpiece. Set in a diverse, welcoming neighborhood near Drake University, this home has truly stood the test of time-offering a rare chance to own genuine craftsmanship in a world of quick makeovers. ## Location - **Address:** 1080 31st Street, Des Moines, IA 50311 - **County:** Polk - **Coordinates:** 41.59796, -93.659839 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=41.59796,-93.659839 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** MELANEE STANBROUGH - **Brokerage:** Iowa Realty Co., Inc. - **Broker Phone:** (800) 724-2297 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1080-31st-St_Des-Moines_IA_50311_M73650-30337?f=listhub&s=DMAARIA&m=708076&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![1080 31st Street - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f1435280553r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f3447750021r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f50033541r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f3609732534r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f3297728085r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f484441718r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f566760939r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f3726155445r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2109243901r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f92655884r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2760720406r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f1079654414r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2025937360r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2623967531r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f4086030619r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f746362353r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f454517826r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2979458684r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2086042883r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2511633939r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f305475403r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f3953402582r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f4264804297r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2520708024r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f768472247r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f3002182011r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f80546434r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f416738035r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 29](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f4165444627r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 30](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f184589149r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 31](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f1079193426r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 32](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2606863702r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 33](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f2314743727r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 34](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f282643320r.jpg) ![1080 31st Street - Photo 35](http://lh.rdcpix.com/0644142360c0d4b40993a58849f223d1l-f1876520513r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 708076 | **Updated:** 2026-10-26 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Des Moines Area Association of REALTORS®, Inc.
