## Description

### Agent Description
Just a couple of blocks from shops, restaurants, and entertainment in downtown Ankeny. This charming bungalow puts you in the heart of Ankeny. Filled with natural hardwood floors and character, this home offers 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom on the main level. The comfortable living space features a wood burning fireplace and a dedicated dining area. Updated white kitchen includes space for a table and a pantry closet. All kitchen appliances will stay. Outside offers a place to unwind and entertain with 2 separate seating areas, one partially shaded by a covered pergola. The detached 1 1/2 car garage provides additional storage and covered parking while the partially fenced backyard provides room to garden or let pets/kids play while you unwind. Key details include a new concrete driveway, an updated electrical panel, a new roof (2021) and HVAC (2020), and half bath in the basement. Whether you're looking for your first home or want to downsize to one level living, this move-in ready ranch shines with pride of ownership and is ready to welcome you home.
