1657 Ford Parkway

Most buyers walk into a house and see what it is. Smart buyers see what it could be. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath Highland Park home has both. What you get today: hardwood floors, an updated bathroom, and the expensive stuff already handled. The electrical panel, furnace and central air are all updated, so you’re not spending your first year writing checks to contractors. Here’s what most people will miss. Head downstairs and you’ll find a huge, solid basement that can nearly double your living space, with room to add a third bedroom and a second bathroom. That’s built-in equity you can create yourself instead of waiting for the market to hand it to you. Add a landscaped yard and a 1-car garage. Then there’s location, the one thing you can never renovate. You’re minutes from Highland Village dining and shops, Highland Park’s golf course and aquatic center, the new Highland Bridge neighborhood, the Mississippi River trails and Hidden Falls. The Ford Parkway Bridge puts Minneapolis right across the river. Live in it now and grow into it later. Opportunities like this don’t sit long.
