Tucked into a beautiful setting in Bailey’s Grove, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath ranch offers the perfect balance of privacy, space, and functionality—inside and out. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch and thoughtfully designed landscaping create a warm, welcoming first impression.
Out back is where this home truly shines. The fully usable backyard has been carefully improved with a retaining wall and expansive stone patio, creating multiple spaces to relax, entertain, and enjoy. Beyond the open yard, a peaceful creek winds through the trees, offering a rare combination of scenic views and privacy—without sacrificing yard space. A 216 sq ft storage shed adds even more flexibility for tools, toys, or hobbies.
Inside, the main level features an open, comfortable layout with quality finishes and great natural light. The private primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a tiled shower and well-appointed bath. The walkout basement extends your living space with a cozy fireplace, a full bar, and room to gather, entertain, or unwind. You’ll also appreciate the generous storage throughout—something that’s hard to find and even harder to replace.
Additional features include a whole-house water filtration system and water softener for added comfort and peace of mind.
With a 3-car garage, spacious lot, and a location that blends neighborhood living with natural surroundings, this home offers a lifestyle that’s both practical and hard to replicate.

Affordable homes in West Des Moines often come with trade-offs—needing significant work, being in a less-desirable location, or offering limited space to grow. This home avoids all three.
A wide open entryway welcomes you in and flows seamlessly into a spacious main level designed for entertaining. The living and dining room are open to each other with large gatherings or everyday life in mind. The updated kitchen anchors the space, taking the guess work out of meal prep. The finished basement adds valuable additional living space, perfect for movie nights, game days, a home office, or guests.
Important updates provide peace of mind, including a furnace replaced in 2022 and exterior paint completed in 2025, making this a move-in-ready option rather than a project. With room to grow, thoughtful updates already completed, and spaces that truly support entertaining, this home stands out as a rare affordable opportunity in West Des Moines.
