Charm and modern updates come together in this brick ranch tucked into an established Des Moines neighborhood. Refinished hardwood floors run through a bright living room anchored by a wide picture window, flowing into a dining area framed by classic wainscoting, a statement chandelier, and French doors that lead out back. The kitchen is the showpiece, with sage green cabinetry, crisp white quartz counters, a farmhouse sink, brass hardware, and stainless steel appliances. Main-level bedrooms keep their original hardwood and add ceiling fans, while a beautifully redone bath features a wood double vanity and warm brass fixtures.
Downstairs, the partially finished basement adds extra living space with a carpeted family room, recessed lighting, a second full bath, and a dedicated laundry area, plus unfinished storage and utility space. A screened porch with a wood-plank ceiling offers a relaxing spot through the seasons, and the deep backyard is shaded by mature trees with room to garden, play, or entertain, plus a detached garage. With its thoughtful updates, solid bones, and a location close to everything Des Moines has to offer, this one is ready for its next owner.
