Living Small: If a Mansion Isn’t for You, Urbandale Bungalow Shouts Charm
Priced at more than $10,000 below assessed value, it's a steal – and it's move-in ready.

There’s a lot to be said for “living small,” and if you’re a believer that less is more, this charming, well-maintained bungalow at 2103 63rd St. is more than you believed possible.
It’s been lovingly maintained and is in easy driving distance to all the shopping, dining and entertainment that Urbandale and the Des Moines metro have to offer.
Here are some of the amenities that make this property a stand-out:
A marble fireplace makes the living room super cozy and beautiful hardwood floors have been maintained throughout the first floor.
The kitchen features white cabinetry, a gas stove and has room for a breakfast.
A dining room slider opens to a three-season room that overlooks the fenced back yard.
Two bedrooms and one full bath complete the main level and the house, and one bedroom even has a fireplace.
The plantation shutters add a nice finishing detail to this house.
In the basement, you’ll find a shower next the laundry and plenty of unfinished space ready for you to add your personal touches.
