Listing Description

It's hard to find this kind of privacy this close to everything. Tucked into the sought-after Greenwood Historic District, this spacious home feels peaceful & tucked away, yet downtown is just 5 min away. Fall in love with its location: walking distance to the shops & restaurants on Ingersoll but also so close to the wonderful Des Moines trail systems that wind past horse stables & a lake all within a few miles.

Inside, the home has spaces that feel both comfortable and inviting. The formal living and dining rooms feature beautiful hardwood floors, while the updated kitchen offers white cabinetry & stainless-steel appliances. The main-floor family room is the perfect place to snuggle up in a cozy spot & unwind by the fire.

Upstairs find all 3 bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite. Downstairs offers a partially finished basement that is a blank canvas for whatever you may need, home office, guest room, playroom, or work out space. The setting is what really makes this home special.

Mature trees surround the property, with woods behind the new privacy fence. There's only one neighbor up the hill, while the city-owned lot to the south provides even more open space around this home. Add a heated pool, attached 2-car garage & a friendly, quiet neighborhood, & you'll feel tucked away while still being minutes from the city. Major updates include a new roof, radon mitigation system & new 6-foot privacy fence. This is a rare combination of privacy, character & convenience.
