Description

How can you beat this location! This charming 3 bed, 1.5 bath home sits right in the heart of the historic Valley Junction Neighborhood, backing directly to Holiday Park, one of West Des Moines favorite spots for outdoor fun. Step inside and you'll immediately notice how easy this home is to love. With so many recent updates, your move-in list gets short quickly. The roof, interior paint, flooring, counters, cabinets, electrical panel, furnace, and even the patio privacy fence and bench have all been refreshed, giving the home a clean, comfortable feel from day one. Out back, mature trees create a peaceful, private retreat, perfect for morning coffee or unwinding after a long day. And with Holiday Park just steps away, you'll have baseball and softball fields, soccer, trails, an aquatic center, picnic areas, and more practically in your backyard. It's built-in entertainment and endless convenience. This home blends character, updates, and location in a way that's hard to find. Come see it for yourself and schedule your private showing today! All information obtained from public records and seller. Basement finish is an estimate and 3rd bedroom (located in basement) is non-conforming.
