Do you love fairy tales? Then step inside this one-of-a-kind 1928 gem that looks like it came straight from the pages of a storybook! Available for the first time in over 25 years, this rare 5-bedroom home in the sought-after Como neighborhood blends timeless character with thoughtful updates.
Much larger than it appears, the upper level offers four spacious bedrooms plus a bathroom remodel completed in 2021 feels like you are walking into a spa.
The main level is warm and inviting, featuring a spacious dining room, a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace tucked into an adorable reading nook, and a remodeled kitchen that is both functional and stylish with all newly updated appliances. A previous addition expanded the home, adding a ¾ bath, a charming old-world den, and a bright office/studio/bedroom—both with walkout access to the backyard patios.
Downstairs, the lower level boasts a fifth bedroom, a family room with an electric fireplace, and a large laundry area, providing flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space.
In addition to the beautifully remodeled kitchen and baths, the home features fresh paint throughout, newly refinished hardwood floors, and updated plumbing and electrical (2000). A mini-split system provides cooling comfort, and the detached two-car garage adds extra convenience.
Located in the vibrant Como neighborhood, this home is just minutes from Como Park and Zoo, the MN State Fair, and all the amenities that make this area so desirable.
