Log home for sale on 1-acre lot, just minutes from downtown Des Moines, priced at $399,750.

A
unique log home in Des Moines' Indianola Hills neighborhood is for sale, boasting a secluded atmosphere and easy access to downtown. Built in 2006, the 1,553-square-foot property features pine log construction, oak flooring, and a polished concrete lower level. The nearly one-acre lot is surrounded by mature trees and offers a private setting with convenient proximity to the airport and downtown.

    Realtor Heather Helland describes the home's location as "a shockingly good spot," allowing for a swift commute downtown in under five minutes. The custom-built log home was constructed by specialists in the industry, resulting in a true log home experience. The main floor features an open-plan design with a living space, dining area, full kitchen, and primary bedroom connected to a bathroom.

    A central staircase leads up to a loft space with the second bedroom and its own walk-in closet, plus a bathroom enhanced with a clawfoot bathtub. The 880-square-foot lower level has been finished with the home's third bedroom and bathroom, laundry area, and polished concrete floor in the family room. A detached garage provides additional storage.

    The property is listed at $399,750 by Heather Helland of RE/MAX Precision. Contact her at 515-669-1763 for more information and a private showing.
