Overview

Description

Meticulously maintained, custom-built rambler with walkout lower level in a highly-sought after New Brighton neighborhood. Lovingly owned by the original owner since 1971, this 4-bed, 2-bath home is nestled on a private lot backed to approximately 3-block wooded area with two ponds and abundant wildlife—offering a peaceful backyard retreat. The main-level features a Slate tiled foyer, open stairway, 3-bedrooms with oversized windows, and an inviting living room with a wood-burning fireplace, custom cabinetry, and built-ins. The updated kitchen offers custom cabinets, Cambria countertops, slate backsplash, stainless appliances including GE Profile double-oven range, Bosch dishwasher, and new microwave (2024). The walk-through bath and primary walk-in closet add to everyday comfort. The walkout lower-level features new carpeting (2026), a spacious family room with 2nd fireplace and Marvin sliding door (2020), 4th bedroom with cedar walk-in closet, updated bath (2020), large laundry with Speed Queen commercial-grade washer/dryer, and abundant storage. Additional major updates: Lennox high-efficiency furnace (2025), AC, humidifier, and water heater (2021), plus updated outlets, switches, and lighting throughout. Exterior highlights include rough-sawn cedar siding freshly stained (2024/25), rebuilt chimney (2024), repainted trim (2023), recently updated landscaping, and an oversized 2-car garage. Highly-sought after 621-Moundsview school district. Don’t miss this move-in ready, fabulous Rambler in a great north metro location!
