STORYBOOK COTTAGE! A sweet place to put down roots—with a corner-lot setting that provides a little extra breathing room. Three bedrooms on the main level... plus a fourth bedroom downstairs. And that's just the beginning. The gorgeous open kitchen is ready for everything from rushed weekday breakfasts to holiday cookie marathons, featuring granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a spacious peninsula where everyone naturally gathers. Beautiful hardwood floors extend throughout the entire main level — including the living room, dining area, hallway, and all three bedrooms. And then there's the heated-tile mudroom... because Minnesota. Enjoy warm tile underfoot, built-in benches, overhead cabinetry, shiplap, and plenty of hooks to keep coats, backpacks, and everyday clutter effortlessly organized. It'll be one of your favorite spots in the house. Just past the mudroom, the heated 2-car attached garage features durable, non-slip epoxy flooring and painted walls. Frosty mornings just got a little friendlier...say goodbye to freezing your fingers off. Need a place to work from home, tackle hobbies, or unwind? The newly finished lower-level office is thoughtfully designed with insulated, vapor-sealed walls, luxury vinyl plank flooring over foam underlayment, fresh paint, and updated lighting. Outside, the fully fenced backyard was made for barbecues, yard games, raised-bed gardening, and roasting marshmallows around the fire pit. Fresh mulch gives everything a polished finishing touch, while mature trees provide shade, privacy, and the perfect backdrop for making summer memories. The big-ticket items? Already done. You'll love the new water heater, brand-new dishwasher, newly created lower-level office, and new LVP flooring in the downstairs bedroom — all freshly completed in 2025. Plus, enjoy total peace of mind with a new roof and windows, both replaced in 2024. You'll adore main-floor laundry, fiber internet, a central vacuum system, a cedar closet, and a radon mitigation system — the kind of extras that make life a little sweeter. The only thing missing is your name on the mailbox!
