Meticulously kept and full of charm, this home is nestled in the highly sought after Minnehaha neighborhood. Pride of ownership shines throughout, beginning with beautiful hardwood floors that flow through the living room, dining room, and main floor bedroom. Updated essentials including the roof, vinyl windows, furnace, and AC, that provide peace of mind for years to come. Natural woodwork adds warmth and timeless character, giving the home classic appeal.
The kitchen is generously sized and functions perfectly as it stands, with plenty of opportunity to expand cabinets and counters if you’ve been dreaming of a custom chef’s kitchen. The upper level is a standout feature, not the typical narrow space, but a large, open area that can serve as a spacious primary bedroom or a second living room. With ample square footage, adding another bathroom is easily within reach.
The basement offers a flexible room ready to suit your needs. Set up a home office to skip the commute, or build out a personal gym and forget waiting for equipment at the YMCA. The possibilities are wide open.
With a great location, thoughtful updates, and room to grow, this lovingly cared for home is a rare find. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours.
