Description

This is the Puget Sound canvas you have been waiting for! Bring your toolbelt, architect, and a healthy dose of imagination to this sprawling Des Moines property. Wearing the clever disguise of a fixer-upper, this property is a goldmine. The main house features 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The detached ADU offers flexibility - this bonus dwelling could provide you with rental income to help offset your rehab budget. You could even use it as your own cozy staging ground while you develop the rest of the dirt. Auto enthusiasts will love the 6 covered parking areas & mechanic’s pit for working on cars. Plus, there’s tons of driveway parking for those summer parties. The massive, and potentially subdividable, 16,641 sqft lot is nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac and offers water and mountain views. Sure, the property needs a little love but think of the massive sweat equity you can build. Forget paying a premium for someone else's questionable tile choices! This space is completely ready for a modern makeover – imagine watching those gorgeous Puget Sound sunsets shining through your future floor-to-ceiling windows. Investors, developers, and ambitious DIY enthusiasts, opportunities with this much upside rarely hit the market. Come see the future before someone else builds it!
