Charming and spacious, this beautifully updated two-plus story home blends timeless character with modern convenience. The fully remodeled 2017 kitchen is a true highlight, featuring custom maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a peninsula with seating for four—ideal for casual meals or entertaining. The kitchen opens to the main floor family room, with loads of light from sliding glass doors going to the deck and large backyard. Just off the kitchen, you'll find a custom pantry/closet with built-in shelving and a convenient half bath. Additional updates include a new boiler (2017), roof (2023), and water heater (2022). There is also central air conditioning (blower in attic) along with hot water heat – the best of both worlds !
The main level offers elegant and versatile living spaces: a living room with a cozy fireplace and built-in shelving, a formal dining room with French doors and corner built-ins, a sunroom/den off the entry, and a family room.
Gleaming wood floors run throughout the main, second, and third levels. Upstairs, the second floor offers three bedrooms—two generously sized—including a primary bedroom with a custom closet, and an oversized full bath. The third floor features a spacious fourth bedroom with beautifully refinished pine floors.
The lower level was fully remodeled in 2022, adding a fifth bedroom, stylish ¾ bath with tile surround, a cozy family room, and plush carpeting throughout. Drain tile and a sump pump system provide added peace of mind.
Enjoy outdoor living in the private, fenced backyard with a large deck—perfect for summer gatherings. The two-car garage also has a new garage door! This home is ideally located just a short walk to restaurants, coffee shops, Macalester College, and grocery stores.
