Welcome to this updated ranch style home with a beautiful private yard backing up to a wooded are. The entry opens to a large living rm and dining area with hardwood floors and windows and a slider that overlooks the wooded rear yard. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2019 with new white cabinets, concrete counter-tops, tile flooring, a new kitchen window, and stainless-steel appliances. There are 2 nice sized bedrooms also with hardwood flooring and a remodeled bath that was gutted in 2019 and has a walk-in tiled shower. Sliders lead to a large, covered deck with new boards and railing installed in 2021 and has a built-in bar area. The basement has 2 bedrooms and an updated bath. One of the bedrooms has hardwood flooring and the 2nd has newer carpet. The basement is larger than what the assessor shows with a storage area under the garage. The home has a water softener that was added in 2022. There was a new electrical box installed in 2018. The air conditioner was replaced in 2021. Must get inside to see this updated ranch and wait until you see the view!! Property is being sold "as is".
Lower Beaver, located between Beaver Avenue and the Des Moines River, is a residential and commercial Des Moines neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a working-corridor feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Beaver Avenue and Lower Beaver Road junction, where auto shops, small eateries, and everyday storefronts line the roadway. Brick one-and-a-half-story homes and tidy bungalows sit behind mature trees, while the main drag keeps things practical and active. The Des Moines River Greenbelt frames the east side with trail access and open views. Nearby, Big Creek State Park adds a larger outdoor backdrop beyond the neighborhood grid.
