Welcome home to this spacious, one-owner custom-built home set on nearly an acre of lush, wooded lawn near the Rum River. Built by respected local builder Wicklander/RuDell Homes, quality construction is evident. The layout flows beautifully for everyday living, with a family room, living room, vaulted entry, formal dining room, large and peaceful back deck, spacious kitchen with tons of storage, main-floor laundry with more storage, and half bath, all conveniently on the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private sanctuary, with French doors opening to an office or library on one end, and a large ensuite bathroom with walk-in closet on the other. Two additional bedrooms on the upper level are well laid out to offer proximity with privacy. The finished, walk-out lower level adds even more flexible space, along with a 4th bedroom, workout area, and large recreation room. There’s also plenty of unfinished space for storage or adding an additional bathroom or bedroom.
The best part of all is the supreme lot and location—truly special. Set on nearly one acre, which meanders towards the Rum River, the home shares a quiet, U-shaped street with high-end custom homes. Relaxing or dining on the private back deck is dreamy. It feels like living in the country, but yet SO close to everything Anoka and Andover have to offer. Andover & Anoka high schools are very close by; easy access to Hwy 10, nearby library, YMCA, shops, restaurants, ice rink, walking paths along the river, historic Downtown Anoka, and more are all so close. There’s even the opportunity for a future owner to collaborate with neighbors to explore if a shared path down to the river could be cleared, in order to enjoy kayaking or birdwatching. This special home, well-loved for decades, is ready for new owners to love it for decades to come!
