Property Description

Step into something truly special at 1147 36th St. in Des Moines' vibrant Drake Neighborhood. This unique American Foursquare-style home offers 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and over 2,600 square feet of finished living space across four levels, blending original character, flexible living options, and incredible future potential.

From the welcoming foyer to the spacious living room, dining area, and eat-in kitchen, the main floor feels warm, functional, and ready for everyday life or entertaining. A main-level bedroom, half bath, and laundry area add convenience.

Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including a charming primary suite with ensuite bath and large walk-in closet. The finished attic adds even more usable space and could serve as a potential 6th bedroom, home office, playroom, art studio, den, or creative retreat.

The basement includes its own private entrance and offers possibilities as an in-law suite, guest quarters, or potential 1-bedroom rental setup with living space, full bath, galley kitchen, and laundry area. Previously used as a vacation rental and once home to a long-running small business, this Drake-area property offers rare flexibility.

Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard, side yard garden potential, front and rear off-street parking, and possible future garage space. Near Drake University, shops, restaurants, local services, and interstate access, 1147 36th St. is quirky, eclectic, character-filled, and ready for its next chapter.
