No HOA and a lender credit available - ask your agent how this opportunity may benefit you! Built in 1920, this well-maintained home has withstood the test of time, offering solid construction paired with thoughtful modern updates. While some settling is typical for homes 100 years old, a pre-listing inspection indicates the foundation and structure are solid - providing added confidence for today’s buyer. Inside, enjoy granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, durable LVP flooring, sound-resistant windows, and a 50-year roof for long-term peace of mind. The home features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a 1-car garage, blending classic character with comfortable living. A cozy fireplace adds warmth during cooler months. Located at the end of a quiet dead-end road, the property offers exceptional privacy while remaining just minutes from the Des Moines waterfront, marina, beaches, restaurants, and local shops. The generous lot offers future potential, including space to explore a DADU/ADU, detached shop, or 2nd small residence (buyer to verify). The ravine behind the home was previously evaluated by a geotechnical surveyor and determined to be stable. Not a piece of land moved in the recent historic rains in December. An added benefit: the land behind the home is YOURS, ensuring lasting privacy with no future development. That means the privacy of this property will always remain in place! This is a rare opportunity where charm, updates, location & potential come together.
