Lovingly maintained by one owner for nearly 30 years, this move-in-ready Southern Hills home shines with pride of ownership and meticulous care throughout, no projects required! With 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, there's plenty of flexible space for everyday living, overnight guests, home offices, or hobbies, plus the convenience of first-floor laundry. The finished basement offers a cozy family room and ample storage, while the attached 2-car garage makes coming home easier as winter approaches, imagine skipping the windshield scraping! Step outside to a fully fenced, low-maintenance backyard filled with mature perennials, where a deck and patio span the entire back of the house, creating plenty of room to relax and entertain. A screened-in pergola adds a welcoming outdoor retreat, and the shed offers extra storage or the potential for a fun playhouse. As a bonus, the seller is leaving the pergola, all outdoor furniture, the grill, and basement storage for the next owner. Come tour this lovely home at our open house this weekend and take in the vibrant fall colors along this friendly Southern Hills block!
Southwestern Hills, located between Gray’s Lake Park and Water Works Park, is a residential and park-adjacent Des Moines neighborhood with wooded slopes and curving streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Fleur Drive & Park Avenue corridor, where riverfront trails, ballfields, and low-key local stops set a steady, outdoors-forward rhythm. Mid-century ranches and split-level homes sit alongside mature trees and deep lots, giving the streetscape a quiet, established feel. Water Works Park and the Des Moines River Greenbelt shape daily routines with long paths and open lawns. Gray’s Lake adds a scenic loop and skyline views that frame the area’s geography. Community pillars nearby include the Des Moines Water Works Park, Gray’s Lake Park, and the historic Salisbury House & Gardens.
