Beautifully updated and lovingly cared for! Be the first new owner of this darling Hamline-Midway
two-story in 47 years. The main floor boasts a gorgeous kitchen remodel, including black stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, a five-burner stove, perfect for your cooking adventures, stone countertops and updated flooring to match the original red oak that is throughout. There is a sweet informal dining area adjacent to the kitchen, perfect for chatting with the chef while they cook. Opposite of these, also on the main floor, is a nicely sized living room, complete with an original brick fireplace, perfect for cozying up to with a cup of cocoa. It was recently converted to electric, so it is eco-conscious too. The exterior of the chimney has also been redone. Heading upstairs, the railing was recently redone with new spindles. It is as lovely as it is sturdy. The upstairs has three bedrooms, each with a generously sized closet, and a full bathroom is a pleasant neutral white. The lower level finished space is bright and sunny, complete with an egress window and closet. Use it as either a fourth bedroom, an office, or a family room, your choice. All windows in the home have been replaced over the years and all mechanicals
are newer. The roof was last replaced in 2019. The yard is filled with countless perennials that have been thoughtfully planted over the decades, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds. Enjoy it all from the comfort of your gazebo, rain or shine. This is all in an amazing and walkable location. It is a short walk to Gingko Coffee, Can Can Wonderland, Blackstack brewery, the neighborhood library, Allianz Field, Hamline Park with its playground, or historic Newell Park, with its playground, historic building, and old growth Oaks. This charming neighborhood is between both downtowns, has great public transportation, and is close to freeways and other main thoroughfares. Will you be this home's next steward?
