Looking for space, style, and a great location? This beautifully updated 1.5-story home sits on just over an acre in a quiet, tucked-away Ankeny neighborhood with quick access to I-35—making a commute to Des Moines or Ames a breeze. The large, open yard offers endless possibilities: plenty of room to add a pool, play structures, or even a garden oasis. The fully insulated outbuilding, complete with two overhead doors, makes a perfect workshop, gym, extra garage—or could easily become the ultimate pool house retreat. Inside, you'll find nearly 3,000 square feet of finished living space with 5 bedrooms, multiple living areas, and thoughtful updates throughout. The main level features a vaulted great room with tons of natural light, a showstopper chef’s kitchen with a massive 12-foot island, and a flexible layout with additional spaces for dining, office, or play. The private primary suite includes a large walk-in closet and spa-like bath. Upstairs are three more spacious bedrooms and a full bath, while the finished lower level offers even more room to spread out—with a large family room, fifth bedroom, full bath, and bonus flex/bar area. Enjoy peaceful views from the oversized composite deck or stamped concrete patio. Updates include roof, siding, windows, HVAC, driveway, and more! Bonus: Sellers are offering an allowance toward bathroom updates—bring your ideas and make it your own! This home offers room to grow, relax, and create your ideal indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
