Set on a generous view lot in the heart of Des Moines, this home is all about easy living and taking in the beauty of the Northwest. You'll catch views of Mount Rainier and the Puget Sound right from your own property-something that never really gets old. Inside, the home has been freshly updated while keeping its charm with a wood LVT flooring, giving it a clean, comfortable feel with a bit of character. The front living room is filled with natural light thanks to large picture windows that frame those panoramic Northwest views. It's a simple, easy-to-care-for home that lets you spend more time enjoying your yard and the charming community. The outdoor space is where this property really stands out. The yard has been thoughtfully landscaped with lawn areas, terraced sections, and multiple spots to sit and unwind. There's also a separate outbuilding-perfect for tools, hobbies, or extra storage-adding flexibility to the space. A durable metal roof adds long-term peace of mind. You're just minutes from the Des Moines Marina, with waterfront dining, walking paths, and a great local feel. Saltwater State Park is close by as well, offering beach access, trails, and some of the best shoreline around. It's a location that gives you that relaxed coastal vibe while still being within easy reach of Seattle and Tacoma. If you've been looking for a place with real views, usable outdoor space, and a setting that feels calm but connected, this one is worth seeing in person.
