Description

For only the 2nd time in 94 years, 415 Bluff Ave is looking for a new owner.

Built in the 1930's by the local Ford dealer, this house was built to be a forever home. The quality of construction would be hard to duplicate today. All brick construction, thoughtful custom woodwork, and interesting details abound.

His family lived here until the 1970's when our family took over care. We have updated many services to modern standards (metal roof, custom energy efficient windows, high-efficiency furnace, etc) while keeping the character that has made this home a Brainerd icon. The expensive work is done, and the home is ready for your cosmetic interior updates to make it your own.

Some highlights:
-large lot on the Mississippi River
-formal dining room
-formal living room
-cozy wood paneled den with wood burning fireplace and built in features
-large family room with breakfast nook
-5 bedrooms
-2 full and 2 half bathrooms
-basement family room with stone fireplace
-bonus finished basement room
-laundry room
-pantry/storage room
-large cedar-lined storage closet.
-large 2 car garage (big enough for 2 full-size trucks with room to walk around them)
-fully-fenced backyard
-and so much more

For more than 50 years, this has been a wonderful place to raise a (large!) family. We'd love to see a new family enjoy this home as much as we did.
