Welcome to this beautifully maintained newer-built two-story home in Columbia Heights, offering modern comfort, thoughtful updates, and exciting future equity potential just minutes from downtown Minneapolis. Built in 2016, this home provides the benefits of newer construction, clean finishes, and lower-maintenance living. Step inside to a bright, welcoming entryway with a large closet that opens into a sun-filled main level designed for everyday living and entertaining. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating a seamless and functional layout. The kitchen features ample cabinetry, generous counter space, pantry storage, stainless steel appliances, a newer backsplash, newer large single-basin sink and faucet, and newer microwave and range. The informal dining area is accented by a modern statement chandelier, while oversized front-facing windows fill the spacious living room with natural light. A convenient main-level half bathroom completes the space. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms on one level, including a spacious primary bedroom with a large custom walk-in closet, plus a full upper-level bathroom. The clean unfinished lower level offers excellent storage and strong future expansion potential, with an existing egress window and rough-in plumbing already in place for a future bedroom, bathroom, family room, office, gym, or additional living space. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with room to entertain, garden, relax, or let pets play, along with a storage shed, oversized detached two-stall garage, and a Honeycrisp apple tree perfect for enjoying fresh apples right from your own backyard each year. Additional highlights include a new Ecobee thermostat, filtered shower head, and a professionally installed 240V EV/Tesla charging line included with the sale. Located near Huset Park, local restaurants, coffee shops, trails, everyday conveniences, and downtown Minneapolis, this home offers move-in-ready comfort today with the opportunity to build future value tomorrow.
