Charming Turn-of-the-Century Two-Story on a Spacious Corner Lot - Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully home, gracefully set on a generous corner lot just a stroll from Minnehaha Creek, Lake Nokomis, Lake Hiawatha, and nearby parks and golf. Rich in character and thoughtfully updated, this home blends vintage charm with modern comfort at every turn. A cork-floored foyer welcomes you inside, leading to a spacious living room and formal dining area adorned with plantation shutters, gleaming hardwood floors, and new windows that fill the space with natural light. The refreshed kitchen features a large center island, modern appliances, and updated cabinetry—perfectly suited for both daily living and entertaining. Just off the kitchen, a versatile main-level bedroom offers the flexibility of a guest room, office, or cozy retreat. Step out the back door to a tranquil backyard sanctuary, complete with mature oaks, paver patio, lush perennial/pollinator gardens and fruit trees (in front yard). Upstairs, the original wood staircase leads to three graciously sized bedrooms and a beautifully remodeled full bath with skylight. The lower level offers updated mechanicals, laundry, ample storage space, and a rough-in for a future bathroom. The oversized 1.5-car garage includes a workbench and plenty of room for gardening tools or outdoor gear. Lovingly cared for and rich in period detail—from original millwork and built-ins to the elegant flow of light-filled spaces—this home is a rare blend of heritage, thoughtful updates, and garden tranquility.
