Offered for the first time in decades, this rare bluff-top property in Bloomington invites a buyer with vision to transform a timeless mid-century modern into a truly extraordinary retreat. Built in 1974 and tucked into a tree-filled lot overlooking the Minnesota River, the setting is peaceful, private, and remarkably connected - just 15 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, MSP Airport, and the best of the Twin Cities.
Inside, the home features a wide-open floor plan with three bedrooms (originally five bedrooms) and three bathrooms. Four dramatic plate-glass windows anchor the main living space, framing views of the wooded bluff. Sliding glass doors throughout the home bring nature to the doorstep - seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living in true mid-century fashion.
This is not a turnkey property. It's an invitation to dream. Priced accordingly, it offers a compelling opportunity for someone with passion, creativity, and an eye for architecture to reimagine something truly special.
