3936 Chowen Avenue S | Minneapolis | Linden Hills Welcome to this beautifully maintained stucco rambler in the heart of Linden Hills, just blocks from Lake Harriet and Bde Maka Ska. With its classic arched entry, brick chimney, and manicured landscaping, this home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates that make it truly move-in ready. Inside, hardwood floors, crown molding, and rich wood trim showcase its original craftsmanship. The living room’s stone-surround gas fireplace offers a cozy focal point, while the adjoining dining area is filled with natural light from wood-framed windows. The updated kitchen combines style and function with Cambria quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances, tile backsplash, and custom maple cabinetry offering abundant storage and a built-in microwave nook. Two inviting bedrooms share a remodeled ¾ bath featuring heated porcelain-tile floors, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and glass-block windows for light and privacy. The lower level adds versatility with another ¾ bath, laundry area, storage, an infared sauna, and plenty of unfinished space for future expansion—whether a family room, guest suite, or home gym. The stucco exterior and newer roof have been meticulously cared for, while the landscaped backyard and large storage shed provide space for gardening tools, bikes, or lake gear. With its combination of classic character, quality updates, and a prime walkable location near Tilia, Martina, the Linden Hills Co-op, and Sebastian Joe’s, 3936 Chowen Avenue S captures the very best of Linden Hills living—warm, walkable, and wonderfully well-kept.
