## Description

### Agent Description
Well-maintained 2-story home featuring 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage. Rarely do you find a home with 6 bedrooms, making this move-in ready property a standout opportunity with exceptional space for comfortable living, entertaining, or investment potential. Conveniently located near Drake University, downtown Des Moines, shopping, dining, parks, and more. The fenced yard, two different kinds of pear trees, and stylish fireplace accent wall with framed TV included add even more appeal. A spacious, well-cared-for home ready for its next owner!
