Make this classic 1½-story your fairytale.
Nestled in the beautiful Minnehaha neighborhood, this home is just a 5-minute walk to Rick's Coffee, a 10-minute stroll to Minnehaha Creek, and only 20 minutes on foot to the iconic Minnehaha Falls. Like any enduring classic, it's built to last. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a 1-car garage, it's move-in ready—no plot twists, no rewrites needed.
But like every great story, there’s more beneath the surface. The attic and basement offer rare ceiling height—even tall folks (yes, over 6 feet!) can stand comfortably and dream big. Let your imagination wander: envision a future layout with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, or a spacious second living area to spread out.
Step out back and you'll find a fenced yard—ideal for pets, play, or quiet evenings around the firepit. This home’s story isn’t finished—it’s simply waiting for you to write the next chapter.
