About this home
There's more than meets the eye in this Huntington Park rambler! A scenic courtyard leads you into the desirable single-level layout where mid-century flair meshes perfectly w/ modern updates. Oak hardwood floors bring timeless beauty & warmth to the home, and plentiful windows look out to a private wooded setting - connecting the indoors to the outdoors. Designer paint colors and a retro-cozy corner fireplace add style & ambiance while upgrades like vinyl windows, newer roof & efficient heat pump (provides both heat & A/C!) mean less worries, and more time relaxing in your peaceful space. The kitchen comes equipped w/ newer SS appliances and quartz countertops - perfect for hosting get-togethers and cooking to your heart's content. Both bedrooms include an impressive amount of storage; the primary boasting an ensuite half bath/dressing room and full bank of closets. The super-private backyard running the length of the home acts as the perfect continuation of the living spaces, seamlessly blending the indoors & the out. Raised garden beds await your green thumb - and if you have a pup, there’s a great little area for a dog run. The detached 1-car garage offers extra storage space for outdoor & garden gear, plus you have an additional off-street driveway parking spot. Delightful 55+ community w/ a well-run HOA, minimal dues, great amenities & events to mingle w/ neighbors. Only moments away from charming downtown Des Moines/marina, Light rail & access to I-5. Welcome home!
