Welcome to this historic South of Grand house located on nearly an acre! Having been owned for 40 years by the same owners, you can see how well it's been maintained and the meticulous finishes throughout. With over 3100 sq ft, 4 beds, and 4 baths, this is a rare gem. As you step through the 100 year old door, you can look up and see the thick mahogany beams in the living room and entry way with a wood fireplace and preserved hardwood floors. The formal dining room includes custom built-ins, perfect for showcasing your finest china and glassware. A generously sized kitchen offers an impressive island and easy access to your private backyard retreat—complete with mature trees and a serene atmosphere, located in the Foster neighborhood.. The upstairs consists of three bedrooms with three bathrooms and another family room with heated floors! The bathroom off the family room was even featured in a magazine because of the beautiful architectural design. This house is one of a kind on one of the best streets in Des Moines - don’t miss out!
