Beaverdale, located between Beaver Avenue and Merle Hay Road, is a residential and walkable Des Moines neighborhood with brick “Beaverdale Brick” homes and a leafy, hill-and-hollow streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Beaver Avenue near Urbandale Avenue, where coffee counters, a classic barbershop feel, and small storefronts set a steady, local rhythm. The Beaverdale Tap and The Slow Down Coffee Co. act as familiar anchors for casual meetups and weekend routines. Streets curve past tidy lawns and mature trees, and many houses feature steep gables and arched doorways. Drake University and the Des Moines River corridor sit nearby, shaping a bike-and-stroll lifestyle without changing Beaverdale’s calm cadence.
