This architectural multi-level split in Apple Valley's Heritage Hills neighborhood steps completely away from standard layout expectations, balancing striking design with a private backyard resort. Built in 1976, this authentic Spanish-style stucco home showcases beams, archways, dark wood accents, and tile details that honor its traditional architectural aesthetic. The interior is anchored by a stunning rock wall and a dramatic two-sided fireplace that warms multiple levels at once. Soaring vaulted ceilings, elegant archways, and a beamed upper living room enhance the home's distinctive character. The expansive upper-level primary suite features two separate closets and dual private bathrooms and can easily be divided into two generous bedrooms to restore the home's original design. The walkout lower level adds functional depth with a cozy family room, wet bar, and two sizable bedrooms. Outside, the fully enclosed composite and vinyl fence frames an exceptional outdoor oasis featuring a heated in-ground pool with a diving board, pool house, separate gazebo, and two custom mud-free dog runs. Tucked onto a quiet cul-de-sac with mature tree coverage, this one-of-a-kind property offers remarkable character, flexible living spaces, and everyday comfort within the highly regarded Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District.
