Welcome to 3231 Summit Vista Drive—an exceptional opportunity tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in one of Southwest Des Moines’ established neighborhoods. This spacious 4-bedroom, 1.34-bath split-level offers over 1,500 square feet of finished living space and sits on an impressive .56-acre lot, giving you the kind of space and privacy that is increasingly hard to find in the city. Inside, you’ll find a functional multi-level layout with multiple living areas, an eat-in kitchen, fireplace, and a finished walkout lower level that provides plenty of flexibility for entertaining, a home office, playroom, workout space, or additional family room. The outdoor space is a major highlight. Enjoy the large fenced backyard, mature landscaping, perennial flowers and bushes, a spacious rear deck, composite front deck, and an additional outlot offering extra room for gardening, recreation, or storage. Several major exterior and mechanical improvements have already been completed, including newer cement-board siding, roof and gutters, concrete driveway, and HVAC system. The attached heated 2-car garage adds another feature you don’t find in every home at this price point. If you’ve been looking for a home with room to spread out, a large lot, updated major components, and a tucked-away setting while still being close to everything Des Moines has to offer, 3231 Summit Vista Drive deserves a look.
