Overview

Description

Make this Mid-Century modern your new home! You will love everything about the design, openness, materials and layout. Built in 1951 & meticulously maintained to hold true to the original vision plus enhanced for today's living. Just a short distance from Minnehaha Creek, Lake Harriet, favorite local restaurants, parks, schools, shops and more. The curb appeal is quite sharp and welcoming. Stone on the exterior and front porch and steps. Very gracious entry leads into the spacious living/dining room with a lannon stone fireplace as the focal point and many windows perfectly positioned for light and privacy. Kitchen color scheme is modeled after the "Frankfurt Kitchen" at the Minneapolis Institute of Art plus it's south-facing, overlooking your gardening area. And the sliding door makes for easy inside and outside living due to the perfectly level transition to the backyard deck. All 3 bedrooms on the main level with lots of flexibility for work at home office space with each connected to a hall area, separate from the living room. Crown molding. Main floor full bathroom with classic original tile. Potential equity builder with ability to add a 4th bedroom and more finished space(700+ sq ft) in the lower level due to 1,150+ sq ft foundation and a generous ceiling height. The space makes for a perfect family room, workout space and more. The toilet is convenient and may be expanded to become a half or 3/4 bathroom to suit your needs and plans for this great lower level space. Stay comfortable in every season with Central/forced air. Original red oak natural hardwood floors throughout the main level. Large windows bring in natural brilliant light. Constructed with steel beams. Large oversized 60 foot wide lot with fully fenced backyard. Thoughtful evergreen and perennial plantings in both the front and back of the property. Secluded firepit area surrounded by mature evergreen trees. 2-car garage with room to park another vehicle as well. Separate 200 amp electric service and meter installed in garage to easily handle rapid charging on multiple vehicles The prime location with access to the lakes, trails, and bike routes across all of Minneapolis is second to none.
