Overview

Description

Located in the heart of the Standish neighborhood, just three blocks from Lake Nokomis, this home offers a unique blend of charm and character. The finished basement is a standout, featuring a vintage cabin feel with a stone-walled bar, a cozy fireplace, and a warm, rustic atmosphere—a rare combination in this neighborhood!

A 3 season porch attached to the garage is perfect for Football Sunday’s and summer nights, complete with a fully fenced yard for privacy. With easy access to parks (Hiawatha, Lake Harriet, Lyndale Park Gardens), regional trails, the airport, local coffee shops + book stores, this home is a rare find.
