820 86th Lane NW

Some homes make you plan a getaway. This one makes the getaway your backyard. Blocks from Mississippi Gateway Regional Park and Kennedy Park, with the Mississippi River and Coon Rapids Dam an easy walk or bike ride away — this is a home that hands you the outdoors, no planning required. Inside, the remodeled entry starts things off right, with a walk-in closet that gives you room to breathe before you've unpacked a single box. Upstairs, the living room, dining room, and kitchen open up under vaulted ceilings, with southern light doing most of the work. COREtec luxury plank flooring, high-end appliances, and recessed lighting carry the same care throughout. Three bedrooms round out the upper level, including an updated owner's suite. Downstairs, a family room with a newer gas insert fireplace sits next to one more bedroom — and real potential to add a second. That's not just space. That's equity on your terms. Outside: a 3-car garage, mature trees, a patio, and a deck. Shopping, restaurants, and freeways are close too — for the days that call for something other than the river. This one's ready. Come see it before it's gone.
