Tucked on the south side of Ankeny, this home puts you minutes from the restaurants, shopping & entertainment at the District at Prairie Trail, a block from the pond & walking trails at Sawgrass Park, & within easy reach of downtown Des Moines. Step inside to a foyer w/ tall ceilings & plenty of natural light, where a front room with a large picture window works today as a home office & could just as easily become a library overlooking the front yard. Around the corner, the tastefully updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances & windows over the sink looking out to the backyard, & the living room is anchored by a massive bay window & a fireplace for slower evenings at home. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms include a primary suite with tray ceilings, a large walk-in closet & a primary bath with a soaking tub & walk-in shower. The finished basement adds daylight windows & built-in cabinetry, making it an easy spot for movie nights or game day, along with another bedroom & bathroom for overnight guests. Out back, a large deck is ready for grilling & hosting, with no immediate neighbor behind you & a private yard all your own. The attached three-car garage leaves room for vehicles plus space for tools, bikes or a workshop. Schedule a showing to see how the location, the layout and that private backyard come together in person!
