About this home

Cute little bungalow in the heart of Des Moines. Walk into a living room with great natural light. The hard wood floors are beautiful and span into the 2 bedrooms. The bathroom has been updated and it very bright and clean. The kitchen has a little island between the living room which makes for more of an open concept feel. There is a backdoor off the kitchen that leads to a beautiful new deck and a fenced backyard. The one car garage has electricity and is just a few short steps from the back door.
