Step into timeless style and comfort in this beautifully maintained 1956-built mid-century modern home. Situated on a spacious, flat 0.39-acre fenced lot, this one-level residence blends original character with smart updates, offering the perfect balance of vintage
appeal and modern convenience.
The heart of the home is a generously sized living room featuring original hardwood floors, a classic gas fireplace, and an informal dining area-ideal for entertaining or relaxing with family and friends. Large updated windows flood the space with natural light, highlighting the warmth of the original woodwork throughout the main floor. An updated eat-in kitchen provides plenty of space for casual meals, with modern finishes that complement the home's classic design. The main floor also includes three bedrooms, including a walk-through third bedroom-common for the era-ideal for use as an office, guest room, or nursery. The full bathroom retains its original mid-century style, complete with a rare double-sink vanity. Downstairs, the recently insulated and sheet rocked lower-level family room offers even more living space and features a second fireplace-this one wood-burning-perfect for cozy Minnesota evenings. Additional highlights include a two-year-old roof, updated windows, and an enclosed
breezeway connecting the home to the attached two-car garage. Step out from the breezeway to a private patio area, where you can enjoy the expansive backyard-ideal for gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the outdoors. With its combination of mid-century character, key updates, and a fantastic lot, this home is a rare find. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of classic design with room to live,
grow, and make it your own.
