Tucked along a tree-lined street in the heart of Beaverdale, this iconic Beaverdale brick home in Des Moines is full of timeless charm and thoughtful updates. With nearly 1,700 square feet of finished living space, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home blends character and comfort in all the right ways. Step into the light-filled living room with original crown molding and a cozy fireplace — perfect for Iowa winters and relaxed evenings at home. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and flows easily into the main living area. Upstairs, a spacious loft offers endless possibilities — think private primary suite, creative studio, or second living space. Two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom are tucked upstairs as well, including one room currently used as a dreamy walk-in closet that could easily be restored as a fourth bedroom. Recent updates include a new roof, professionally resealed exterior windows, and basement tuck-pointing for long-term peace of mind.
