Charming, updated and spacious! This 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is located in a serene Minneapolis neighborhood just minutes from Lake Nokomis, Lake Nokomis Beach, and Minnehaha Creek. Surrounded by parks and within close proximity to Hale Elementary, the setting is ideal for both relaxation and convenience. A welcoming 15x5 front porch invites you to sit and enjoy the quiet neighborhood ambiance. Upon entry, you're greeted by a bright four-season porch with vaulted ceilings and tiled flooring—perfect for enjoying sunsets in comfort all year long. From there, step into a generous living room featuring timeless hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace with a modern wood-burning insert, brick surround, and a wood mantel. Crown molding adds architectural detail, while large windows provide abundant natural light. A conveniently placed closet offers extra storage. Through a wide arched opening, the living room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which continues the cohesive hardwood flooring. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, high efficiency LED lighting, and a peninsula with breakfast bar seating, which creates a perfect spot for casual meals or entertaining. The kitchen opens to a bright, spacious dining room highlighted by a soaring 12-foot vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan, and a large bay window that floods the room with natural light. Two closets add storage versatility, while a built-in entertainment center with shelving and an included TV make it ideal for both relaxing and hosting guests. There is also convenient access to the backyard. Two bedrooms are located on the main floor, each with hardwood flooring, ceiling fans for added comfort, multiple windows, and additional closet space. The nearby bathroom has been stylishly remodeled and includes a soaking tub with a detachable shower head, tile surround and flooring, a medicine cabinet, and a hall closet. Additional built-in cabinetry in the hallway offers extra storage or space for decorative display. Upstairs, a versatile space serves as a third bedroom, complete with hardwood floors, multiple windows, a closet, and included queen bed and bedside table. This level also features a half bathroom with generous space for potential shelving or cabinetry. The space is also ideal for a home office, media room, or additional living area—offering flexibility to suit your needs. The lower level opens into a warm and inviting family room adorned with custom oak walls, a tray ceiling, wood flooring, and an infrared fireplace built into cabinetry. The TV in the family room is included in the sale of the home. This cozy space is perfect for movie nights! Adjacent to the family room is a dedicated office space with tile flooring, a built-in wood desk and shelving—ideal for remote work or hobbies. A bonus room on the lower level can serve as a fourth bedroom with the addition of a door, and includes a closet, carpeting, and walk-out access to a three-season porch. The TV in this room is included in the sale of the home. The nearby full bathroom is remodeled and features a tub-shower combination, a single vanity, and hall closet. The designated laundry area includes tile flooring, shelves, hooks, and a brand-new washer installed in May 2025. Walk out from the lower level to a large three-season porch, which provides a quiet retreat and easy access to the backyard. Outside, enjoy a spacious patio perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The yard features thoughtfully designed landscaping and beautiful trees. A detached two-stall garage provides year-round protection for vehicles and ample space for storage if needed. Both the house and garage received a brand-new roof with 30-year shingles in the summer of 2024, and comes with a transferable warranty. Many additional updates have been completed to ensure modern comfort and peace of mind for years to come.
