From the moment you arrive, it's clear this home is something truly special. Featured in Mpls.St.Paul Magazine in 2007, this beautifully updated property blends exceptional design, thoughtful upgrades, and breathtaking landscaping into a one-of-a-kind living experience. The curb appeal is unforgettable with fresh mulch, mature trees bursting with seasonal blooms, a welcoming front patio, and an elegant front-yard fountain creating a peaceful first impression. The fully fenced backyard feels like a private retreat with an infinity-edge flowing water feature leading to a pond, additional fountain/bird bath, two patios, pergola, handy storage shed, and stunning landscaping filled with Japanese lilac, honeysuckle, and other gorgeous plantings. Inside, the home has been extensively renovated to create open, desirable living spaces with beautiful sight lines throughout the main level and upper floor. Fresh paint, widened staircases, and warm blonde acacia hardwood flooring across the first and second floors create a modern yet inviting feel. The kitchen is both luxurious and functional featuring a built-in Miele plumbed coffee maker and pot filler at the stove. Major updates provide peace of mind including a brand-new roof (May 2026), insulated attic, vinyl-coated steel siding designed for long-term durability, newer windows and a new asphalt driveway completed last year. Mechanical systems have been meticulously maintained including a top-of-the-line Bryant Evolution furnace serviced twice annually and a new A/C system will be installed 5/18/2026! The finished lower level offers incredible flexibility with a spacious family room, large TV area, beautiful white oak flooring in the storage room, plumbing for a future wet bar, and potential for a fourth bedroom with egress, home office, additional bath, or even multigenerational living. Move in and immediately enjoy a home where every detail has been thoughtfully cared for. Conveniently located within walking distance to Apple Valley High School, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a truly memorable home and garden sanctuary.
