This Oakdale townhome offers something increasingly hard to find: an affordable path to homeownership with exceptional outdoor space, privacy, and plenty of potential still ahead. The private, fully fenced backyard backs to mature trees and wooded views, creating a peaceful setting that feels far more secluded than typical townhome living. A spacious deck extends the living space outdoors, while inside, a wood-burning fireplace brings warmth and character to the main level. Three bedrooms provide a functional layout from day one, with even more opportunity waiting in the unfinished walkout lower level. With a bathroom already roughed in, the space could be transformed with an additional bedroom, family room, and bath, adding both finished square footage and future value. Generous guest parking makes entertaining easy, and quick access to both Minneapolis and St. Paul keeps the best of the Twin Cities within reach. With a rare combination of privacy, outdoor space, affordability, and potential, this home offers far more than you might expect from townhome living. With the seller offering $5,000.00 towards cosmetic updates or a carpet credit - you won't find a better deal in the NE metro!
