About this House

Welcome to this one-of-a-kind century home, where timeless character meets everyday comfort. Situated on a spacious corner lot just four blocks south of Clear Lake and its scenic walking trail, this 1900-built beauty has been lovingly cared for by only three owners in its 126-year history—a rarity that speaks to the enduring appeal of this unique property. A welcoming circle drive leads to the front door, opening through a bright three-season porch into a home filled with original woodwork, hardwood floors, and classic architectural charm. The main level flows seamlessly from the living room to the formal dining room, featuring a built-in buffet and chandelier, then into the large kitchen with dual sinks and a cozy breakfast nook. Just beyond, the inviting family room showcases exposed wood beams, a gas fireplace, and steps leading to an office. A mudroom and half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, including a private primary suite with a walk-in closet and jetted tub. Second-floor laundry adds convenience, while the walk-up attic offers storage and future potential. Designed for entertaining, the outdoor spaces include a heated above-ground pool, expansive deck, additional side deck, and patio. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and entrepreneurs alike will appreciate the heated 3-stall attached garage with direct basement access, along with an unexpected two-story detached garage/shop offering more than 2,200 square feet of versatile space! With 126 years of history, timeless character, and endless potential, this Waseca property awaits its next owner. Call today to schedule your private showing!
