Tucked into the heart of the south side on nearly half an acre, this 1.5 story home is full of charm and surprise. With 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, it offers flexibility for all kinds of living arrangements including a large bedroom on both the main and lower level that could easily serve as the primary. Upstairs, the finished attic features a cozy loft area plus its own bedroom, making it a perfect hideout for kids, guests, or a creative space to make your own. The fully remodeled basement has a warm, open feel with a walkout from both the family room and bedroom, leading to a private backyard surrounded by trees, a covered deck, and an inground pool made for summer nights. And when you're craving something delicious, you're just steps from Baratta’s, one of Des Moines’ most famous Italian restaurants.
