Built in 1891 and sitting on a corner lot across from McHenry Park, this 3,109 sq ft Victorian has the kind of bones that don't exist in new construction like the wraparound porch, tall ceilings, original architectural details, and a sprawling layout that rewards a buyer who knows what they're looking at. The main house offers 5 bedrooms and 2 baths across two floors. A separate 1 bed, 1 bath apartment with its own entrance sits between the house and the garage. The 1.5 car detached garage rounds out a property that has more going for it than most projects this size. This one needs everything - full rehab, top to bottom - and it's priced accordingly. The right buyer is someone with a vision and the patience to turn something remarkable into something extraordinary. On a quiet street, steps from the park, in an established Des Moines neighborhood - the upside here is real. Sold in AS IS condition. Cash or rehab financing only. Call your agent to schedule a tour.
