Property Description
A sunny front yard with mature plantings and a "Rain Garden" leads to a covered entrance and a bright, airy interior, freshly painted. The centerpiece of the open living space with its gleaming hardwood floors is a huge picture window overlooking the lush backyard.
A gas-burning fireplace with a new insert installed in 2022 makes for cozy evenings on those chilly Minnesota nights. A large dining area is perfect for hosting guests or enjoying your own weeknight culinary ventures. The versatility of the living space lets you create intimate conversation corners or arrange the furnishings for reading, watching television, and visiting.
The sleek white galley kitchen has a compact breakfast nook for morning coffee or visiting with guests while you cook, and it boasts white appliances and a high-end dishwasher. A side door leads to the driveway and the attached single-car garage for easy in and out with groceries.
Three well-lit sizable bedrooms offer plenty of space to spread out. Or they can accommodate a home office or craft room. An updated bath with a tub/shower combo, ocean-hued tile accents, and a stunning vessel sink completes this floor.
The lower level provides true Minnesota ambiance, with its warm knotty pine paneling, new carpeting, and second gas fireplace. There’s tons of room here to entertain and relax, whether you enjoy movie nights, games, table tennis, or exercise, and everyone is bound to love the retro wet bar and built-in shelving.
This level also houses a spacious laundry room with washer, dryer, and utility sink, plus handy storage cabinets. Adjacent, you’ll find a compact 3/4 bath with a shower. Walk out from the lower level through the new door hung in 2023 to a tree-lined private backyard with a terraced garden and a brick patio that’s ideal for grilling or gathering around a fire pit.
Large, shiny green hostas abound in the borders, but there’s plenty of room for more gardening for those who enjoy growing their own flowers, herbs, and vegetables. The yard also has a grassy open space that’s wonderful for pets, kids, or breaking out the croquet mallets.
You’ll love the lower maintenance of this home with all these additional updates:
New roof and gutters (2018)
Leaf-free gutter protection (2023)
New windows on both levels (2023-24)
New attic insulation (2023)
Waite Park in the northeast part of the city is a Minneapolis favorite because it affords residents that perfect mix of nearby urban amenities and leafy suburban serenity. Named for Edward Foote Waite, a Hennepin County judge, this community was originally farmland and developed between the 1920s and the post-World War II housing boom. Waite Park, Deming Heights Park, and Cavell Park provide green space for play and picnics.
The Audubon Park neighborhood is just two blocks away across the St. Anthony Parkway. This community was named for John James Audubon, the famed naturalist and bird lover. Many of the homes here were built in the mid-20th century.
With its great location, amazing storage space, and a crisp neutral interior that would suit many decor styles, this charming home is sure to go quickly.
