Property Description

Nearly 1 acre in the Johnston School District and completely move-in ready, this fully updated 1940s ranch offers peace of mind from the start. In the past 6 years, the major updates have all been completed, including a new roof, vinyl windows, all new PEX plumbing, updated electrical, added insulation, water heater, septic system, whole-house water filter and sump pump. Even the garage is ready for more with 125-amp service and 220, ideal for projects, hobbies or future expansion. Inside, true hardwood floors guide you into an open and inviting living space. The kitchen has been fully updated, includes all the (newer) appliances, and boasts a large pantry. The home also offers a spacious bathroom, convenient main-floor laundry, and two bedrooms, with new carpet in the primary. The real magic unfolds out back. With the adjacent lot included, this expansive in-town yard is a rare find, offering space, privacy, and endless potential in an unincorporated Des Moines location. Nearly an acre gives you room to dream bigger, whether that means expanding the garage, parking a camper, or creating the outdoor retreat you've always envisioned. Spring is already set up for success with a fully fenced garden loaded with garlic and fresh herbs ready to pop, along with two newly planted apple trees. There is even a separate fenced-in area perfect for Fido to run and play safely. This property blends thoughtful updates, functional space, and outdoor opportunity in a way that's hard to find.
