Classic Beaverdale charm meets modern updates in this inviting 1921 bungalow! With 1,084 sq ft of living space, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home has been thoughtfully updated while retaining the character that makes these homes so special. Enter through the charming vestibule featuring French glass doors that open into a spacious living room filled with natural light and beautiful hardwood floors. The remodeled kitchen offers an open breakfast bar, creating an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. The remodeled full bath and all-new windows add to the home's move-in-ready appeal, while newer HVAC provides additional peace of mind. The full basement offers a non-conforming finished space, plus abundant storage for hobbies, projects and all the extras. And the garage is a rare find ? an expansive 2½-car garage with one side extending double-deep, providing room for up to 3 vehicles, toys or workshop space. Move right in, make this home yours, and enjoy being just minutes from the heart of Beaverdale, with nearby grocery stores, restaurants, local celebrations and all the neighborhood amenities that make this area so desirable. All information obtained from seller and public record.
Beaverdale, located between Beaver Avenue and Merle Hay Road, is a residential and walkable Des Moines neighborhood with brick “Beaverdale Brick” homes and a leafy, hill-and-hollow streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Beaver Avenue near Urbandale Avenue, where coffee counters, a classic barbershop feel, and small storefronts set a steady, local rhythm. The Beaverdale Tap and The Slow Down Coffee Co. act as familiar anchors for casual meetups and weekend routines. Streets curve past tidy lawns and mature trees, and many houses feature steep gables and arched doorways. Drake University and the Des Moines River corridor sit nearby, shaping a bike-and-stroll lifestyle without changing Beaverdale’s calm cadence.
