If "peaceful but close to everything" had an address, it would be here. Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac surrounded by mature trees, you'll know you found something special the moment you arrive. As you step inside to the two-story foyer, you'll notice the fresh paint, refinished wood floors, new carpet throughout, along with several additional updates. The abundance of natural light pouring in from all directions will be hard to miss, along with a modern, open floor plan that feels far more current than its age would suggest. On the main level, there is a formal living room and dining room, and the wall of windows and skylights above, paired with the cozy wood-burning fireplace, offer a dramatic setting in the family room, which opens to the informal dining area and kitchen. With high-end stainless steel appliances, a double wall oven, gas cooktop, and countertop space that doesn't end, imagine the meals and memories you will create here. The corner sink is anchored by two large windows, the pantry is spacious enough for all your goodies, and those peaceful backyard views at every meal may be the best part. Wait, did you just find the perfect kitchen? Just off the kitchen is your private backyard oasis with beautiful landscaping and an irrigation system to help keep everything looking its best. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, hosting your favorites, or relaxing after a long day, this flexible patio space has you covered. Back inside, the main floor also includes a half bathroom and laundry room with sink. Upstairs adds four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a spacious owner's retreat with a separate jetted tub and shower, and a walk-in closet. Downstairs, you'll find a large, flexible family room offering an abundance of space for any activity. Well, maybe not pickleball. Lobs would be very difficult. It's wired for surround sound, and the gas fireplace is sure to keep winter movie nights warm and cozy. There is also another bedroom, a 3/4 bathroom, a partially finished room that could be a future office or home gym, and loads of storage space and room for a workshop. Right next to the MN Zoo and just a short drive to nearly every restaurant and store you can think of, you're never far from your daily necessities. Surrounded by miles of trails for walking, running, and biking, and with golf, MOA, and MSP airport all close by, the convenience of this location is obvious. And with 77 and 35E so close, getting to both downtowns and points beyond is a breeze. Add the award-winning ISD 196 schools (Eastview, Falcon Ridge, and Greenleaf), and the case for this gem just keeps getting stronger! Bonus: The owner had a home inspection before listing. In addition to the interior updates noted above, the entire exterior was just professionally painted. While they don't know the exact ages of many updates over the years, you'll quickly see the meticulous care this home has received. The updated windows are triple-pane, the roof was just professionally cleaned, the furnace is a Trane XV95, and the kitchen updates are a true focal point on the main level. Welcome home!
