Nestled among the tree-lined streets of Linden Hills, this wonderful craftsman-influenced property seamlessly blends early twentieth-century architecture with thoughtful, contemporary updates. This 1912 built home stands as a testament to quality design and workmanship along with the timeless appeal of classic American architecture. Its recent three-level addition invites modern living while preserving the original spirit and character that make this residence so exceptional. The expansion dramatically increases living space and functionality, all while paying respect to the home's original aesthetic.
The main level features the original woodwork and hardwood floors in the living and dining rooms that flows to light-filled great room and eat-in kitchen space. The main floor also offers a front side office space and backside mudroom, half bath and grilling deck.
The upper level offers spacious bedrooms including a generous primary suite, additional full bath and three additional bedrooms perfect for family, guests or flexible use as home offices or creative studios.
Remarkably rare in Linden Hills, the home's walkout lower level is a true highlight.
The finished basement adds valuable square footage, making it an ideal retreat for gatherings, recreation or private guest suite. Oversized windows and a walkout to the patio complete with a wood burning fireplace fill the space with light, while thoughtful touches such as heated floors, a space saving murphy bed, three-quarter bath and loads of custom design shelving and storage space. The original footprint with 700 square feet allows for a separate, closed off space that houses the mechanicals, laundry, workshop and additional storage.
With a total of 3200 finished square feet, the property offers generous space without sacrificing intimacy or warmth. Each level has been designed with both aesthetics and functionality in mind from the original hardwood floors to the custom trim and contemporary accents. Whether you are hosting a lively dinner party, enjoying a quiet night by the fireplace, or exploring creative hobbies in the lower level, every corner of the home invites connection and relaxation.
All of this is found biking and walking distance to the restaurants of downtown Linden Hills and the local gems that are Lake Harriet and Bde Maka Ska. Don't miss this fabulous opportunity to enjoy all that is Linden Hills!
