1151 SE Village View Lane
Ankeny IA 50021

End units don't come up often in this complex, and this one has two full baths and a fireplace. Being on the corner makes a bigger difference than you'd think: one shared wall instead of two, windows on three sides, and four windows across the front of the living room that keep the main floor bright well into the afternoon. Better yet, the updates are already done, and they're the ones that cost real money. Luxury vinyl plank runs through the entire main level, with fresh paint, new carpet upstairs, painted kitchen cabinets with matte black hardware, and new vanities, framed mirrors and black faucets in both baths. Every appliance stays, washer and dryer included. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, both vaulted, both with ceiling fans and double closets, and the laundry tucked right between them so nobody's carrying a basket down two flights. The garage is a true two-car with shelving and cabinets already hung, so the bikes and holiday bins have a home on day one. You're on the quieter side of SE Ankeny just off Delaware, minutes from the Delaware Avenue shops and restaurants, a short drive to Otter Creek Park and the golf course, and close to I-35 for downtown Des Moines or Ames. Ankeny schools. And the HOA handles the lawn, the snow, the trash and the exterior, so you can come home and put your feet up.
