Description

Location, layout, & design come together in this classic 1940s Highland Park home. Charm and character abound in the living and dining rooms featuring hardwood floors, stone fireplace, built in shelving nooks and corner cabinetry. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a well-designed layout for maximum storage. Main floor offers two well-appointed bedrooms and four-piece bath that has been meticulously maintained in its original style. Upstairs will surely impress with its custom designed primary suite: a truly spacious layout, new carpet, updated windows, walk in closet, 3/4 bath and balcony. Storage space is creatively used throughout, and floor plan allows for both bedrooms and office or a nursery. Family room space in the lower level is great for movie night or workout area! The native backyard gardens have been carefully curated for their low maintenance, eco-friendly, and bee safe characteristics. Truly a gem inside and out!

    "Public transportation is within a block or two of everyone’s house. I don’t use it often, so I don’t really know how much time is involved. It takes about 30 minutes to get to the furthest place you could go in Minneapolis/St. Paul from here by car. Suburbs, maybe 45. Most things you need for errand are within 15 minutes."

    "Pros: Beautiful neighborhood. Upper end housing stock. Multiple parks in the area. Golf course, disc golf, fishing nearby, walking paths, great area for pets, safe and secure. Cons: Very few quality restaurants, bars, or shopping. No retail within 8 blocks. Highland Park is a great neighborhood. It could be the next 50th and France but the vision for upscale shopping and dining just isn't there yet. "
