Professional photos coming 11/10 . Mid-Century Modern on the Bassett Creek Nature Area Gabled rooflines, walls of glass, and a backyard that opens onto protected woods. This mid-century modern abuts the Bassett Creek nature area, so the view from every window is trees, not neighbors. At dusk the woods go quiet, and a home built in 1966 shows what it was designed to do. Cathedral wood ceilings follow the roofline up and over the main level. A two-sided brick fireplace anchors the living spaces, with a flagstone hearth at its base. Solotubes and skylights pull daylight deep into the house. The split-level plan gives you distinct spaces and sight lines all at once. The windows are the point. Spring greens, summer gardens, fall color, and snow-lit woods at night, all from inside. Abundant wildlife moves throughout the nature area behind the house. Outside, the garden is landscaped in layers: native perennials, ornamental grasses, boulders, and landscape lighting that makes the evenings glow. A cedar deck overlooks it all. At the back of the garage is a 250-square-foot heated workshop with its own garage door opening to the backyard, ready for projects, hobbies, or a studio This is a real mid-century modern, not a flip wearing the label. Minutes to Theodore Wirth Park, and downtown Minneapolis.
