Charming Ranch with Room to Grow in Des Moines. Welcome to this inviting 2-bedroom, 2-bath ranch tucked away on a quiet dead-end street — just 2 minutes from shopping and daily conveniences, and only 5 minutes from the heart of downtown Des Moines. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, investor, or someone looking to simplify your space without sacrificing a great yard, this home has so much to offer. Step inside to discover a cozy main level filled with natural light, functional living spaces, and timeless charm. The partially finished basement adds valuable square footage — perfect for a second living area, rec room, or office — plus a non-conforming bedroom that offers flexibility for guests, hobbies, or extra storage. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of a detached 2-car garage and a small backyard deck, ideal for morning coffee, evening relaxation, or casual entertaining. Out back, the 0.3-acre lot features two established garden plots, mature trees, and plenty of space for outdoor fun or future projects. The peaceful setting offers a true neighborhood feel, with an elementary school just two blocks away and Easter Lake only a mile down the road — perfect for walking, fishing, kayaking, or weekend picnics. Don’t miss your chance to make this home your own — opportunities like this don’t come around often.
