“Lacie was amazing throughout the whole buying experience as a first-time home owner. She made every effort to keep me informed during our buying process and shown her expertise when any questions arose. When there were some questions she couldn't answer she was able to defer me to the appriorate subject-matter expert whether it was an electrician for electrical questions/work to inspection questions. She was absolutely fantastic to work with and would highly recommend her to friends and family that are looking to buy/sell now and later! Thank you Lacie Shelby for working with my partner and I. Thank you even more for making our first home purchase worth it!”

“To whom it my concern, It is our immense pleasure to recommend Viola Salvato as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. Viola had an initial meeting with us regarding our specific needs in a home as well as our budgetary limits. She is highly talented and immediately found us numerous listings of homes. She did not waste our time with homes that were not in line with our needs. Viola is a master with contract negotiation she came up with a deal that was good for us as well as making the seller happy. She knows the area like the back of her hand and there is nothing that escapes her attention when it comes to properties for sale in this area. We found Viola to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She also is highly personable with an engaging personality. She is hands down the best!”

“Dakotah was amazing to work with! Dakotah was referred to us by someone and we will continue to refer him to others. Knowledgeable about the Des Moines area and homes in the area. Always felt that Dakotah was looking out for us as first time home buyers and helped us explain the home buying process in great detail. When we do decide to sell our incredible home, we will surely work with Dakotah again!”

Learn more about what Garton West has to offer.

Garton West offers residents a vibrant, walkable community with convenient amenities, ample green spaces, and a welcoming, close-knit vibe.

Garton West is a northeast-side pocket of Des Moines with quick connections to Euclid and Hubbell avenues and the I‑235 corridor, putting much of Polk County within easy reach. Streets are lined with tidy mid-century homes and deep yards, and the area’s practical layout appeals to anyone who wants a quieter residential feel without giving up urban convenience.

Outdoor time is easy to come by. The Gay Lea Wilson Trail, managed by Polk County Conservation, threads through the east side and links riders and runners to long, green stretches of creek corridor, while nearby Grandview Park offers hilltop views, play spaces, and seasonal events through the City of Des Moines. Families value the local school pathway, anchored by Garton Elementary School, continuing to Hoyt Middle School and East High School, all part of Des Moines Public Schools. Grand View University adds college energy just to the west, with lectures, performances, and athletics open to the community. For getting around, DART bus routes along major corridors keep commutes simple.

Weekends bring options close to home—from classic rides on the Heritage Carousel to farmers’ market runs and neighborhood coffee stops—while nearby Highland Park, Capitol Park, and city edges toward Pleasant Hill and Altoona expand shopping and dining choices. If you’re considering a move here—or planning to sell—Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local real estate professional to guide every step.
