Description

Welcome Home to 1218 Central Avenue, a classic 1940s gem that offers an irresistible blend of timeless charm and modern updates!
Upon entering, you are greeted with an inviting tiled foyer that provides direct access to both the living room and the kitchen. The large, bright living room showcases gleaming re-finished hardwood floors, beautiful bay window, and a fireplace focal point. The original hardwood flooring continues into the formal dining room with tongue-and-groove accent walls and designer chandelier -- the perfect aesthetic for hosting dinners and gatherings! Off the dining room and behind charming French doors, you have a delightful, bright sunroom as the ideal space for your morning coffee or to relax with in the afternoon. The ample kitchen is dreamy with brand new stainless appliances, new butcher block counter tops, tile floors, lots of natural light from windows on two sides, and a beautiful statement stainless sink and open shelving! An updated half bath with a new vanity and light fixture conveniently rounds out the well-designed floor plan of the main level and leaves you with a feeling of comfort and continuity!
The three generous bedrooms are found on the upper level, along with a centrally located, updated, full bathroom. The original hardwood floors continue throughout the upper level as well, and you will also enjoy the walk-in-closet in the primary bedroom, and the gables in the second bedroom!
In addition to the laundry area, the basement remains unfinished and offers a large open space for storage, work-out room, or your creative use.
The elevation of the home shows wonderful curb appeal and landscaping in the front yard, and wooded inviting outdoor living in the back yard with a large cement patio and brick firepit!
All of this, and the home is nestled in a wonderful neighborhood with quick access to the shopping, dining, and activity of charming downtown Red Wing!
This home truly offers Red Wing living at its finest!

    "We have holiday stroll and river city days. It is a fun time of year. Red wing could do more but at least we have these. The Fourth of July would be nice if they had a parade like other smaller towns Thanksgiving day there is a 5 k and the art festival in the fall is ok. The red wing shoe factory sale makes things interesting as well. "

Within walking distance to two great parks and a dog park as well. Approximately ~3/4 mile from the Cannon Valley Trail for great bike riding.
