Classic Minneapolis Craftsman Bungalow. Complete down to the studs renovation, to be in period style, yet updated for modern convenience. Where to begin? Basement excavated down to add ceiling height, all new plumbing, electrical, radon barrier, new footings, headers and structural supports added. Drain tile, sump pump and egress window. New Hardie board cedar (style) siding and fresh recoating of stucco + new architectural shingles on both the home and garage. Hi-eff water heater and HVAC with air source heat pump. Sherwin-Williams historic collection paint choices. Classic front porch opens up to a spacious foyer with built-in bench / cubbies. Much of the millwork was salvageable, missing pieces were expertly recreated for seamless style – trim, cove ceilings, archways, built-in bookshelves in the large front living room and beautiful buffet in the formal dining room. Kitchen was enlarged and updated – all appliances stay. 3 bedrooms up (each with walk-in closets) and an updated 3/4 bath. Finished lower level features a family room, 4th bedroom (with walkthrough full bath) and laundry. All work permitted and inspected. Fully fenced yard in back, ample lawn space, deck and 2 car garage. You can find a bungalow with various updates done over the last 100 years, plagued by varying degrees of craftsmanship, but you won’t find one done from top to bottom, inside and out like this.
