About 5726 Lincoln Ave
Property Id: 2488219 Welcome to this cozy and fully renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom single family home in the heart of Beaverdale, one of Des Moines' most beloved neighborhoods. Fresh, clean, and move-in ready — the kind of place that feels like home the moment you walk in. Inside you'll find bright living space, two updated bathrooms, and a comfortable layout that makes the most of every square foot. The finished basement gives you a versatile bonus area for a home office, playroom, exercise space, or movie nights (not a sleeping area — no egress windows, per code). Step out back to your own private patio and fully fenced yard, perfect for morning coffee, summer grilling, or a small dog stretching its legs. The garage keeps your vehicle out of Iowa winters and doubles as extra storage. Location is a real win. You're walking distance to Beaverdale's Main Street shops, restaurants, and the farmers market, minutes from Drake University, and a quick commute to downtown Des Moines via Hickman or I-235. Beaverdale Park, local coffee shops, and top-rated schools are all just around the corner. A few things worth knowing before you apply. Tenant pays all utilities (water, waste, electric, gas) and handles lawn care in summer and snow removal in winter. Renters insurance is required and this is a non-smoking household. One small dog up to 25 lbs is welcome with a pet fee. We're looking for a respectful, long-term tenant — satisfactory credit and background check, no prior evictions, and verifiable rental and employment history. Application fee is $45 per adult. Security deposit is 1.5 months rent. If that sounds like a good fit, we'd love to hear from you.
