About This Home

EXTENSIVELY UPDATED — MOVE-IN READY! This home has been transformed with ~$85k in improvements: 2023 roof, siding, and gutters, boiler (2022, 10-yr warranty), water heater, electrical panel, sump pump, drain tile, underground gutter drainage, water line replacement (2025), new kitchen appliances (fridge, range), new flooring throughout, updated kitchen sink, countertop and faucet, attic insulation, new windows and window wells, and more — the big stuff is done! No HOA. No shared walls. Just a well-maintained home that's ready for its next chapter. The basement is unfinished but partially framed out and has been extensively updated — sump pump, drain tile, new boiler, water heater, electrical panel, plumbing main pipe, and a reinforced beam — so the mechanical work is already done and the bones are solid. The yard is flat, fully fenced with newer privacy fencing, and features enclosed garden beds and raspberry shrubs — a true outdoor retreat. The detached garage adds convenient off-street parking. Inside, two connected open spaces flow naturally as a living and dining room. Two bedrooms sit off to the side — the second is cozy and would work beautifully as a nursery, home office, or guest room. Toward the back: a full bathroom, kitchen, and mudroom. The location seals the deal. A large green space, sports fields, and playground at the Duluth & Case Rec Center are just five houses away. Lake Phalen beach and walking trails are a 5-minute drive, 7-minute bike ride, or 20-minute stroll north. Easy access to everything Saint Paul and Minneapolis have to offer.
