Stunning Elizabeth Close–designed midcentury modern home just steps from Minneapolis’ iconic city lakes!
This architecturally significant 1951 residence sits on a generous corner lot and is filled with warm natural light thanks to its thoughtful southern orientation. Classic midcentury character shines throughout—wood paneling, clean lines, tile floors, and original details—beautifully blended with modern updates.
The open main level is perfect for gatherings, with an updated kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, roll out shelves, a glass tile backsplash, and brand new Cafe smart appliances (2024). A built in stereo system and a pass through window to the backyard patio make entertaining effortless.
Upstairs, the sun washed primary suite offers windows on three sides and a stylish en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms and a loft provide treetop views and a tranquil feel. The finished lower level offers flexible space for a gym, office, or recreation.
The oversized 2 car garage is EV ready, and the mudroom features original midcentury cabinetry. Major updates include high efficiency HVAC (2019), US Internet fiber, SimpliSafe security, and a Guardian water monitoring shutoff. Beautiful perennial gardens surround the home, including dedicated beds for vegetables and herbs.
Lovingly maintained by the same owners for 39 years with respect for the home’s original architecture, this is a rare opportunity to own a true midcentury modern masterpiece in an unbeatable lakes area location.
