Description

SINGLE? TAKEN? Somewhere in between? Either way, this Cape Cod cutie is ready for a relationship. It's a vintage doll with storybook cottage charm... solid bones, finished spaces across three levels, and just the right amount of flirty character. A little vintage and a little playful, it’s calling for someone with a paintbrush and an appreciation for details you just don’t find anymore. Tucked on a quiet no-outlet street (arguably the best street in town) just a block from Faribault Senior High, the location is a total green flag. Cosmetic projects offer an easy opportunity to make it shine again, starting with the exterior, which is ready for prep and paint -- an update that will completely transform curb appeal. Just inside the front door, a beautiful hardwood staircase is highlighted by a turned newel post and classic wood railing that showcase the home’s original craftsmanship while setting a charming first impression. The main level offers a large, open kitchen and dining area with tile flooring that share one connected space. The kitchen is adorably retro, featuring an eclectic mix of Spanish and period pulls and knobs on the cabinetry, abundant storage, generous counter space, and a layout that really works. The sweet dining chandelier and statement kitchen fixture are giving old-soul romance. The cozy living room is the perfect place to unwind after a long day -- or a long date with a paint roller. Just off the main living areas, an adorable den brings all the nostalgia. Wrapped in warm wood paneling with a brick fireplace, this space is ideal for quiet nights, creative projects, or curling up with a book. The fireplace is currently decorative, with the option to add a gas or wood-burning insert if you want to turn up the cozy factor. Pocket doors in both the living room and den add another layer of character. An original half bath on the main level adds personality and convenience, while a main-level bedroom with original hardwood flooring, along with laundry on the same level, checks the box for main-level living. Upstairs, you’ll find two super-large bedrooms, both with original hardwood flooring and plenty of space for king-sized beds. Each includes built-in desks that are equal parts charming and functional. The upper-level full bathroom features a tiled shower surround with tile imported from Mexico. Dual-zone heating adds toasty comfort, allowing the upper-level bedrooms to keep their own just-right temperature. This level also includes generous tucked-away storage spaces. Downstairs, the lower-level family room adds a whole extra layer of livability. Full of potential (and amazing throwback carpet), this space is ready for movie nights, game days, workouts, or cozy hangouts. The lower level includes a third bathroom opportunity, with a plumbed shower area and toilet space offering an easy path to a finished bathroom. Fixtures are present, and the space is unfinished. Outside, the lot is generous with mature trees and a peaceful backyard, offering space to relax, garden, gather, or simply enjoy the calm. In addition to the attached one-car garage, a large concrete parking pad provides extra space for additional vehicles, a boat, or weekend toys. This abode is comfortable and livable today, with cosmetic projects that can be tackled over time—giving you the freedom to avoid someone else’s paint palette choices and make it your own while building equity along the way. One more huge thing to love... a NEW ROOF will be installed soon, taking a major item off your to-do list! And the location seals the deal. Walk or bike to schools, churches, restaurants, grocery stores, and Faribault’s historic downtown district for shopping, the Paradise Center for the Arts. This cutie is ready for commitment—someone who will choose it, invest in it, and grow with it along the way. A perfect match for your happily-ever-after!
