What's special
Located in the highly coveted historic Owl's Head neighborhood this brick beauty boasts 6 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms & 3 half bathrooms. The location is ideal; located on a quiet street but within walking distance to the Bill Riley trail, downtown Des Moines, and the Ingersoll entertainment district. If that doesn't sell you on this home the charming character will. Gorgeous craftsman woodwork, ceiling beams, original light fixtures and hardwood floors, all in pristine condition, run throughout the home. The kitchen features white cabinetry, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and a custom banquette that opens up to the den, which is home to a fireplace and wet bar with large doors that lead to the deck. The perfect layout for your next party. Outside in the huge flat yard is a large gazebo and second deck. The finished basement provides an additional retreat for family movie nights or a great bonus room. So much to love in this stunning historic home in prime location.
