Description

Historic Charm Meets Modern Reliability just south of Drake at the corner of 24th St & Cottage Grove Ave.! The location is truly unbeatable for those who love the Des Moines lifestyle; you are directly across from the scenic Drake Park and a short stroll from local favorites like Gateway Market, Smokey Row Coffee and Drake Diner. Step into this move-in ready, captivating, historic 2-story home that seamlessly blends early-century character with the peace of mind of 21st-century infrastructure. In '06 this home was moved on to a brand-new poured foundation offering a solid basement rarely found in homes of this vintage. Boasting 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the interior shines with original crafted woodwork and hardwood floors and a flood of natural light through updated, energy efficient windows. The basement level is a standout feature, offering tall ceilings and a freshly completed 3/4 bathroom & bedroom, providing the perfect teen/guest suite or even a rental for extra income. Many recent updates including a high efficiency furnace and AC. Whether you are looking for a stately home with historic soul or a high-performing rental near Drake University and medical facilities, this home is a rare opportunity. With quick access to 235 and downtown, you truly are in the center of it all. The corner lot is adjacent to city owned green space and provides a large lot without having to mow or shovel all of sidewalk. Basement finish SF approx from seller.
