This fairy-tale, Minneapolis charmer is history told through architectural artistry. The living room serves as a breathtaking introduction, where soaring cathedral ceilings anchored by rustic timbers meet the warmth of a gorgeous focal-point fireplace. The main level features original built-in alcoves and a vibrant stained-glass window to cast a soft, nostalgic glow that you simply won’t find in modern builds.
The home offers three spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms, each maintaining that sought-after historic integrity, including beautifully preserved vintage tile work and original hardwood floors. When it’s time to retreat, the primary suite offers a true sanctuary, boasting a private sitting room, a walk-in closet, and a dedicated 3/4 ensuite bath. The third bedroom is a dream for any book lover or hobbyist, featuring floor-to-ceiling bookshelves complete with a whimsical sliding ladder.
Beyond the aesthetics, this home surprises with clever practicality. The large lower level family room is perfect for entertaining with its retro bar complete with vinyl booth and table for extra seating. Forget trekking through the snow; the garage connects directly to the basement via its own internal stairway, making grocery hauls and Minnesota winters a breeze. Sophisticated yet deeply inviting, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local character that feels like home the moment you cross the threshold. Don’t miss the chance to make this home your happily-ever-after.
