Welcome home to 5940 Clinton Ave.! This charming three-bedroom, two-bath home is a rare find, blending classic character with thoughtful updates throughout.
Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with vaulted ceilings and abundant storage — a true retreat. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath with original tile round out the main floor, alongside a kitchen that's been beautifully updated for modern living.
Step through the French doors off the kitchen onto the screened-in porch, your front-row seat to the garden oasis beyond. The deep lot is anchored by mature trees and lush perennial gardens, creating a private, peaceful backdrop for morning coffee or evening unwinding.
A two-car garage adds everyday convenience, while the location can't be beat — just blocks to the Parkway and minutes from 35W and 62, putting all of Minneapolis within easy reach.
This is more than a house — it's a home ready for its next chapter. Welcome home to 5940 Clinton Ave.! Only available due to relocation.
