A brick-framed entry that stops you on the sidewalk. This Standish-Ericsson charmer in the heart of the Nokomis community carries the kind of character money cannot buy. The stucco exterior, arched brick entryway, and lush landscaping set the tone before you even walk through the door. Step inside and the hardwood floors warm, wide, and glowing run the length of the main level beneath original crown molding and rich wood trim preserved with care through the decades. The living room is generous and light-filled, opening seamlessly through charming arched doorways into the dining room where slider door frames the deck and backyard like a painting, and natural light pours in from every angle. The kitchen is where this home truly delivers, gray shaker cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and a granite island large enough to gather around, prep a full dinner, and still have room for great conversation while you do it. The bathroom carries that same considered aesthetic floor to wall white subway tile, classic hex tile floor, original wood door, and brushed nickel finishes throughout. And then there is the deck. String lights at twilight. Fenced backyard stretching out below. The kitchen right through the slider. This is what Minneapolis summers are made for.Two-car garage. Ample storage throughout, basement, closets, and beyond. For a home built in the 1920s in this neighborhood, that is not something you find every day. The major updates are done and done right. New roof. New HVAC. Sewer liner. New washer. Full grading and French drain. Fresh landscaping front and back. This home has been methodically cared for and it shows. One block to Lake Hiawatha. Two blocks to Lake Nokomis. Trails, beaches, kayaking, paddleboarding, and the most beautiful evening walks in the city right outside your door. Walk to Northern Coffeeworks, A Baker's Wife, and Buster's on 28th. Minnehaha Falls, the Mississippi River, and miles of trail system right at your fingertips. Everyday conveniences close by. MSP Airport fifteen minutes away. This is the Minneapolis lifestyle. This is the home that puts you right in the middle of it.
