About This Home

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and cradled by towering, mature trees, 761 Torchwood Court isn't just a house — it's the one you've been waiting for. With a sprawling lot that backs directly to a pond, this home delivers the kind of peaceful setting most people pin on their vision boards. Step inside and the first thing you'll notice is space — real, generous, breathe-easy space. Open living areas flow naturally from room to room, flooded with light and anchored by not one, but two fireplaces that make every evening feel like an occasion. Whether you're hosting a crowd or curling up solo, this home rises to the moment. Fresh from head to toe, the updates here aren't cosmetic afterthoughts — they're the right ones. Fresh paint throughout gives the interiors a clean, move-in-ready brightness, while brand new carpeting underfoot and new recessed lighting set a warm, polished tone in every room. And beneath it all? Newer mechanical systems that mean you inherit comfort and efficiency, not a to-do list. Outside, the lot is large with abundant opportunities. Mature trees frame the property like a scene from a storybook, the cul-de-sac keeps traffic noise to a whisper, and multiple entertaining spaces offer BBQ and bonfire possibilities. The location is just as impressive as the home itself. Served by Mounds View Schools, New Brighton sits at the crossroads of I-694 and I-35W, putting you 15 minutes from both downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul — easy access without the urban hustle. Spend weekends at Long Lake Regional Park, disc golfing at Hansen Park, exploring Rice Creek Trails, or hitting Rosedale Center for a little retail therapy. This is the one that checks every box — and then adds a few you didn't know to check.
