Beautiful home on Bluff Avenue in Brainerd’s north side neighborhood — and the inside is truly cozy and charming. This home features geothermal-assisted, highly efficient heating, making it extremely economical to operate year-round. It is also located just minutes from the hospital and everything Brainerd has to offer; it offers convenience and quick access to essential services.
The home has been remodeled in the last several years, and nearly everything is newer: carpeting, laminate flooring, stainless steel kitchen appliances, kitchen counters and sink, the main-floor bath, most windows and doors, light fixtures, furnace, water heater, electrical panel, and interior paint. High ceilings and two gas fireplaces add warmth and charm, making this property stand out as well above average for the neighborhood in both features and condition.
The lot backs directly up to public DNR land that stretches all the way to the Mississippi River, providing wonderful wooded views and no neighbors behind you. The owners have also installed a private fenced-in backyard with a fire pit and a beautiful, quiet setting to enjoy.
The exterior is low-maintenance vinyl siding, and the garage (built in 1999) is in excellent condition and has a great workshop opportunity. This home offers comfort, efficiency, and an exceptional location that is hard to match in this price range.
