This exceptional Lowry Hill East residence has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated by Awad & Koontz, preserving the integrity of its classic turn-of-the-century architecture while opening the main living spaces to create an airy, light-filled flow. Stunning original details include carved natural woodwork, coffered ceilings framed by wood columns, stained-glass windows, hardwood floors, historic porcelain hex tile, a mix of new lighting and original chandeliers. New transom windows, French doors leading to the rebuilt front porch, and reclaimed marble countertops sourced from the St. Paul Library add both charm and distinction.
Located just minutes from downtown Minneapolis, the city lakes, parks, shops, restaurants, and services, this remarkable home is truly one of a kind!
