Welcome to 2425 Capitol Ave, a storybook bungalow nestled on one of Des Moines' most picturesque cobblestone streets. This meticulously restored Arts & Crafts home blends timeless character with modern updates in a way that feels both elevated and effortless. Step into the inviting four-seasons room—ideal as a sitting area, library, or creative space—and feel the warmth of a home with heart. Inside, the open-concept layout offers a modern flow while honoring original craftsmanship through detailed trim work and finishes. The gourmet kitchen features custom poplar cabinetry, built-in appliances, and a cleverly designed pantry above the stairs. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the main level, tying together each thoughtfully restored space. Off the dining room, a flexible bedroom makes a perfect guest room or office. Down the hall, two additional spacious bedrooms offer generous closets and are complemented by a beautifully tiled full bath with custom built-ins. The basement has been carefully maintained with masonry work, a new full bath, and a partially finished area—ideal for a second living space or non-conforming fourth bedroom. Outside, the yard features new fencing on three sides, ample off-street parking, and an oversized two-car garage that's insulated and heated. With new siding, roof, windows, and a tuned-up HVAC system, this home is truly move-in ready. Discover charm and modern comfort at 2425 Capitol Ave!
