Discover this classic East Harriet two-story, where architectural details blend seamlessly with tasteful updates.
The heart of the home is a beautiful, architect designed, kitchen renovation featuring high ceilings, west-facing
French doors that fill the space with afternoon sunlight, and a rear entrance. Finishes include Carrara marble countertops, beveled tile backsplash, custom cabinetry with abundant storage, large center island with seating, GE Café refrigerator, Wolf cooktop, hood & wall oven and custom built-in charging station.
The kitchen was opened to the dining room creating an easy flow for everyday living and gathering. The dining room received an update as well featuring high ceilings and a custom built-in to match the kitchen cabinets creating a visual connection.
The kitchen’s French doors lead to a private and intimate deck draped in mature vines, offering a peaceful setting for morning coffee or outdoor dining. An enclosed front porch provides another peaceful place to relax during warmer months.
Just inside the entry, an original wood staircase is complemented by a built-in bench. Opposite the staircase, a marble-surround gas fireplace serves as the focal point of the living room providing a cozy retreat, while large windows overlooking the porch bring in natural light and enhance the sense of openness.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated full bath. The spacious primary bedroom includes glass doors opening to a private balcony. Currently used as an office, the front bedroom features two walk-in closets, and a charming three paned window with treetop views that creates a treehouse atmosphere.
The fully finished lower level provides additional living space with a family room featuring automatic entry lighting and built-in bookcases. A dedicated laundry room with 3/4 bath, mechanical room, and storage areas complete the lower-level space.
Outside, mature trees and perennial gardens surround the fully fenced backyard. A two-car garage and driveway gate add convenience while helping contain pets and provide a secure play area. A complete list of home improvements is available including all new windows (except two), new roof in 2022, mini-split air conditioner installed in 2016, and 2015 kitchen & dining room renovation.
Only 2.5 blocks from Lake Harriet, the Rose Garden, and Bird Sanctuary, this home offers easy access to neighborhood restaurants, coffee & pastry shops, schools, parks, and local farmer’s market. East Harriet remains one of Minneapolis’ most connected, walkable and sought-after neighborhoods.
