1 Bedroom • 1 Bathroom 1 Bath • Sleeps 2-3Welcome to the Lofted Lounge, a cozy boho-chic treetop hideaway perched above the neighborhood in the historic Middlesex Mansion. This charming third-story retreat offers privacy, character, and that “ahhh” feeling the moment you walk in. Perfect for solo travelers, couples, or a relaxed getaway, the space lives like a studio with smart design and plenty of room to settle in.
Inside, you’ll find high-end furnishings, a plush queen bed, built-in nooks, generous closets, and extra storage throughout—rare for a space this cozy. The fully stocked kitchen is ready for real cooking, complete with a gas oven and stove, full-size fridge, baking essentials, and a coffee station to start your mornings right. The full bathroom is spacious and comfortable, making longer stays easy.
The true star of the Lofted Lounge is the sunny, south-facing private deck, surrounded by trees and perched above it all. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, or winding down under the glow of solar lights in the evening. Inside, a dedicated workspace makes it easy to mix work and play, while a Smart Roku TV lets you kick back and stream your favorite shows.
Free laundry is available in the building, and the Lofted Lounge is fully furnished and dog-friendly, so your four-legged travel buddy can come along too.
Located just off Ingersoll Avenue, you’re minutes from some of Des Moines’ best coffee shops, restaurants, breweries, and local favorites—plus quick access to downtown, bike paths, parks, and cultural spots like the Des Moines Art Center. Whether you’re here for a weekend escape or a longer stay, the Lofted Lounge is a warm, welcoming space that feels elevated, relaxed, and uniquely Des Moines.
