Welcome to 3114 48th Place, set on a quiet, tree-lined street in a friendly Beaverdale community. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is ready for its next chapter. Inside, hardwood floors run through the main living areas, giving the home a warm, timeless feel. The main floor offers an L-shaped living/dining space, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a kitchen with gas stove, SS appliances, and eat-in area. Upstairs holds a spacious third bedroom with two large closets and a second full bath a great perk for a home this size. The partially finished basement adds even more room to spread out, cozy up for movie nights on one side, with a workbench area on the other for projects and storage. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard, patio, and shade trees, plus an oversized detached 1-car garage. Hoping to be close to adventure? Beaverdale has four neighborhood parks (Beaverdale, Ashby, Westchester, and Witmer), several with playgrounds, tennis courts, and a splash pool. You're also close to the Northwest Aquatic Center, the Beaverdale business district along Beaver Avenue with local shops and restaurants, and just minutes from downtown Des Moines, and Merle Hay Mall. All information obtained from Sellers and public records.
