1720 NE 14th Court

Enjoy cul-de-sac living in Ankeny's Deer Creek neighborhood on a 0.39-acre corner lot backing to mature trees and the neighborhood pond. Built in 2011, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers zero-entry access at the front door and opens into a great room with a tray ceiling and a gas fireplace framed by built-ins. The living room flows into the kitchen and eat-in dining area, then out to a four-season porch overlooking the wooded backyard, a comfortable spot to take in every season. The primary suite also features a tray ceiling, and laundry is on the main level. The walkout lower level adds a full second living space with its own kitchen, including refrigerator, oven, microwave and sink, along with a second laundry, two bedrooms and a full bath, giving guests their own space when hosting. Central vac, radon mitigation, an irrigation system and a 2-car garage round out the home. Out back, the neighborhood pond is used for ice skating in winter and a sledding hill sits close by, while Fourmile Creek and the surrounding woods give the area a secluded feel. Deer Creek Park is an 8-minute walk, Heritage Park with disc golf, a shelter and walking paths is 0.7 miles away, and Costco and I-35 are about 2 miles from home, with Des Moines 15 minutes and Ames 20 minutes away. Ankeny Community Schools: Northeast Elementary, Northview Middle and Ankeny Centennial High. A well-built home with room to host and a quiet setting that keeps all of Ankeny close at hand.
