An adjacent informal dining area is perfect for everyday meals and overlooks the deep backyard. Original hardwood floors extend throughout much of the main level, and freshly painted neutral walls provide a welcoming backdrop for your personal style. Downstairs, the spacious lower level was designed for relaxed living and casual entertaining. Classic knotty-pine walls create a cozy "up north" atmosphere that invites you to settle in and stay awhile. The generous amusement room offers space for comfortable seating and movie nights, along with room for a billiards or game table. A charming dry bar adds vintage appeal and includes a clever pass-through that can be closed when the bar is not open for business.

The oversized one-car garage includes a convenient service door, and the spacious driveway has been freshly seal coated. Significant 2023 improvements include new roofs on both the house and garage, replacement of the front and back steps and sidewalk, and installation of a lateral sewer liner. The location is hard to beat. Walk to Sift Gluten Free Bakery, Lunds & Byerly's, Carbone's, neighborhood coffee shops and the beloved Italian Eatery. Lake Hiawatha, Hiawatha Golf Course, Lake Nokomis and Minnehaha Parkway are all just minutes away.
