Only available due to a work relocation, this spacious Cottage Grove home offers nearly 2,800 finished square feet, a private backyard and an incredible cul-de-sac setting with Highlands Park just steps away. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the home features generous living spaces, a beautifully remodeled kitchen (2025) and a stunning four-season cedar porch overlooking the private, tree-lined backyard. The porch creates a special place to enjoy the changing Minnesota seasons year-round and adds to the home's warm, inviting character. The spacious primary suite includes a private en suite bath, updated in 2024, and a walk-in closet. Large bedrooms, abundant natural light and flexible living areas provide plenty of room to spread out, gather with family and friends, work from home or simply relax. Outside, the large backyard offers wonderful privacy, mature trees and plenty of space for entertaining, gardening and play. Highlands Park is located at the end of the cul-de-sac, adding even more green space and recreation right outside the neighborhood. Thoughtfully maintained with major improvements already completed, including a new roof and skylights (2022), furnace, central A/C and water heater (2021). This is a rare combination of space, privacy, character and significant updates in an established Cottage Grove neighborhood.
