Situated on a flat lot with an attached two-car garage and convenient access to walking and biking trails, this home offers exceptional charm inside and out. Beautiful hardwood floors, walnut doors, and detailed trim flow throughout the home. Highlights include two wood-burning fireplaces, a three-season enclosed porch off the living room, a laundry chute, and custom blinds throughout. The kitchen features solid oak cabinetry, a built-in glass-front china cabinet, and a cozy breakfast nook. Three oversized bedrooms and a full bath are located on the second floor, while the main level and basement each offer a half bath. The partially finished basement includes a family room with a wood-burning fireplace, providing flexible space for an additional family room, office, or recreation area. Outdoor living shines with an oversized deck offering room for grilling and privacy created by mature landscaping. A private second-floor deck overlooks the beautifully terraced backyard. A separate permanent staircase leads to the third floor, offering excellent potential for additional living space or storage. Topping it all off is a Ludowici Italian tile roof-an enduring hallmark of premium historic architecture. The lower back level of the property gives direct access to the bike path. 1 year home warranty included! ## Location - **Address:** 6045 N Waterbury Road, Des Moines, IA 50312 - **County:** Polk - **Coordinates:** 41.587428, -93.700906 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=41.587428,-93.700906 ## Virtual Tour & Media - **Video Tour:** https://mosaics-media.com/6045-N-Waterbury-Rd/idx ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Sandra Gustafson - **Brokerage:** Iowa Realty Co., Inc. - **Broker Phone:** (800) 724-2297 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/6045-N-Waterbury-Rd_Des-Moines_IA_50312_M74837-30588?f=listhub&s=DMAARIA&m=747824&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f4059329245r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3429624326r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1641599537r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3790373643r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f957224398r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1851894512r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1613668692r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1750661279r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2410975668r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1051105036r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2988232533r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f280774557r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1990340618r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3818880698r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3196308381r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1744236862r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f4193172527r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2310874877r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1693301785r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f658441711r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1170609432r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3617808412r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1934256061r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2140595378r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2484472646r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2946296749r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1672695840r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3599534839r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 29](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2601060864r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 30](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f308147102r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 31](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2749611191r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 32](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f2109805547r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 33](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f1404027104r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 34](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3262203275r.jpg) ![6045 N Waterbury Road - Photo 35](http://lh.rdcpix.com/38eb5c948ff7214e5f7e1be1a126eec9l-f3452663273r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 747824 | **Updated:** 2026-10-26 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Des Moines Area Association of REALTORS®, Inc.
