Send this to the empty nester or retiree who's been waiting for the perfect home in Polk City. 😍

Because this one is making a pretty strong case.

If you've been looking for true main-floor living without giving up space for family visits, hobbies, or the grandkids, this is exactly the kind of listing I'd want you to see.

🏠 807 W Trace Dr | $339K | 3 bed / 3 bath | Ranch walkout townhome

Picture your morning coffee in the bright 4-season room or out on the composite deck, with pond views and the sound of the fountain. Everything you need day to day is on one level: an updated kitchen with granite and stainless appliances, a primary suite with a tray ceiling, walk-in closet, and new Kohler fixtures, plus main-floor laundry (washer and dryer included!).

Downstairs, the walkout lower level gives you room for guests with a second living area, an oversized bedroom, a full bath, and a storeroom big enough to hold the things you're not ready to part with.

And the best part? Low HOA dues cover lawn care, snow removal, trash, and exterior maintenance, so you can spend your time at TCI Golf Course or Big Creek State Park instead of on chores. The big-ticket items are handled too, with a newer roof (2019) and HVAC and water heater (2023).

If your search has been stuck on "I want to simplify, but I don't want to give up the space or the view," I wouldn't write it off just yet.

DM me TRACE I'll send you all the information on this one and help you see it in person!

🏠 Browsing properties for sale in Des Moines area?

Before you click "Request a tour" allow me to warn you...

That one click sends your information out to a
whole lot of agents at once.

Suddenly your phone is lighting up with calls and texts from people you've never met and have no way to vet. Some are great.
Some might be three weeks into the job.

Here's what having the right agent in your corner actually gets you: someone who knows which homes are overpriced before you waste your weekend, has access to properties that never even hit Zillow, and knows exactly how to write an offer that wins.

This is probably the biggest purchase of your life. You deserve someone with a proven track record you can vet.

If we haven't met, hi I'm Jill Budden, a Ankeny local and Des Moines area real estate advisor. 📲 Send me the address you've been eyeing and let's have a conversation!
