4509 1st Avenue S

This 1920s Kingfield charmer delivers classic craftsman character in one of Southwest Minneapolis' most walkable pockets. Wide stained trim and door casings, refinished maple hardwood floors, and long sightlines from the living room through the dining room and into the kitchen give the main level a connected, generous feel. A bright enclosed entry mudroom with bench and coat hooks adds a welcoming transitional space. The updated kitchen features granite counters, wood and glass cabinetry, stainless appliances, brand new flooring, a shiplap ceiling, and a fun wine cork backsplash, open to the dining room via a bar height peninsula. Built-in shelving tucked into the stairwell wall opens charmingly to the dining room. The main level full bath is updated with white subway tile. Three bedrooms on the main level. The finished basement is surprisingly open and spacious, with a three-quarter bath featuring a walk-in shower, glass block windows, and a flex office or fourth bedroom. Fully fenced backyard with mature trees. One to two blocks to restaurants, the farmers market, parks, and shopping. Easy freeway access for getting around the metro. Don't miss this house!
