Step into timeless charm in this stately colonial-style home along the Mississippi River. With only 2 cherished owners, the solid brick & block construction exudes character. Once you set foot on the reclaimed Purington Paver drive & sidewalks from Mpls' Nicollet Mall, you will know you are home. Enjoy the seasonality that can be had with 74ft of water frontage on an expansive 0.86-acre lot surrounded by black walnut trees & fruit-producing grape vines. A thoughtfully designed carriage house can be used as a 3rd stall garage, home office, or a magical playhouse. The fully recreational river allows for fun in the sun, also the ability to boat to the new Champlin amphitheater for concerts & soon to be dining experience. Take a relaxing boat ride up the Rum River & dock to experience downtown Anoka’s many shops, restaurants, & brewery. Whether you desire this stunning property as your primary home, or a perfectly located cabin, no words can describe how you will feel calling it your own.
