This adorable brick ranch has had one owner since its construction in 1951. Lovingly cared for and tucked away on a quiet street, this home is sure to steal your heart. Looking through the back windows you will find your very own cherry tree and a 3-car garage. Centered between Windsor Heights and Waveland Woods you will be close to everything you need and within walking distance to some of Des Moines best schools and the Waveland golf course. A 2 minute drive will give you access to grocery stores, plenty of shopping and iconic Des Moines dining such as Simon's and the Waveland Cafe. New roof on both the home and garage in September of 2023.
