Welcome to this charming Faribault home that has been lovingly owned and cared for by the same family since 1988. Rich with original character and timeless details, this home tells a story of pride of ownership and thoughtful updates throughout the years. Original woodwork and special architectural features have been beautifully preserved, creating warmth and charm you simply don’t find in newer construction.
The main level offers a spacious and inviting layout, perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with custom cabinetry and granite countertops while still complementing the home’s original style. Three bedrooms on one level provide comfort and convenience, while the partially finished basement offers additional living space, storage, or room to grow.
Step outside to a large yard filled with beautiful, established flower beds—an ideal setting for relaxing, gardening, or hosting gatherings. An oversized two-stall garage, added in 2003, provides ample space for vehicles, hobbies, and storage.
This home is a rare blend of preserved character and meaningful updates, all in a setting that has truly been cherished for decades. A special opportunity to own a well-maintained, character-filled home in Faribault.
