Pricey Properties

The number of million-dollar-plus homes in Greater Des Moines may be modest compared with many metropolitan areas, but dearly priced digs dot the landscape throughout Polk and Dallas counties. Dennis and Susan Albaugh’s 10,619- square-foot Ankeny estate—assessed at $3,451,000—ranks as the most expensive home in the two counties. That’s closely followed by Kyle and Sharon Krause’s 5,856-square-foot Waukee home, which comes in at $3,425,040.
