Nestled in the coveted Minikahda Vista neighborhood, this beautifully refreshed and thoughtfully updated 2½-story home blends timeless architecture with thoughtfully modernized living. Much of the interior has been recently painted with designer quality paint, complementing the rich hardwood floors, gracious room sizes, and abundant natural light to create a home that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. Designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining, the main level features an expansive living room with a handsome gas fireplace, a warm and inviting family room with custom built-ins, a formal dining room framed by a charming bay window, and a fabulous kitchen complete with a center island, sunny breakfast nook, premium appliances, warming drawer, and abundant workspace. Upstairs, there are four spacious bedrooms including a private primary suite with custom closet organizers and a 3/4 ceramic bath. A delightful sunroom offers the perfect office, reading retreat, or creative studio, and provides access to a 2nd floor balcony/deck for morning coffee, evening sunsets or container gardening (away from hungry bunnies.) The walk-up third floor presents an extraordinary opportunity to create additional bedrooms, a luxurious owner's suite, home office, or just tons of storage space. The finished lower level provides remarkable flexibility for recreation, fitness, guests, hobbies, or a potential fifth bedroom with egress. Outside, beautifully designed gardens and a circular brick patio create an unforgettable setting for relaxing or entertaining. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint throughout much of the home, new furnace, new central air conditioning, new water heater, and newer roof, offering peace of mind for years to come. Just moments from Bde Maka Ska, Minnehaha Creek, parks, neighborhood restaurants, boutique shopping, and everything that makes Minikahda Vista among the area's most sought-after communities, this is a rare opportunity to own a home that combines enduring character with exceptional livability.
