Lovely updated one and a half story stucco home in highly sought Longfellow neighborhood-a place where care, quality, and thoughtfulness has come together to create an exceptional living experience. Over the past decade, this home has undergone major remodeling, including a refreshed kitchen and bathroom, a newer roof, updated electrical service with whole house surge protection and all new wiring, and a deluxe insulated 2.5 car garage complete with workbench, cabinets, attic storage, and an electric heater. So much heavy lifting has already been done here, you can move right in and enjoy. Inside, natural light pours through every room, highlighting the gorgeous hardwood floors on both levels and the professional interior and exterior paintwork done with meticulous attention to detail. The kitchen and dining room have been opened up by removing a wall, creating a bright, inviting space with granite countertops, breakfast bar, custom oak cabinetry, and an expanded rear nook-perfect for extra prep space, a TV, or a small workstation. The main level offers two comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs, you'll find two additional rooms connected by a large walk in closet area and bonus storage. One room is accessed through the other, making the space ideal for adjoining kids' rooms, a nursery, dressing room, office, or craft studio. The front entry isn't just a porch-it has fondly been called The Sunroom, a cherished part of the home that adds year round enjoyment and extra living space. Downstairs, the clean, painted basement features drain tile and a sump pump for peace of mind. Plenty of room for a ping pong or pool table. Or it's ready to finish off, whether you envision a game room, craft space, or even an additional bathroom. Step outside to an amazing backyard designed for both relaxation and productivity. A gas line is already connected for outdoor grilling. The fenced raised garden beds are built to keep the bunnies out and produce an impressive harvest. Tall privacy fences on both sides create an enjoyable outdoor retreat. You'll love being a short stroll from local restaurants and pubs, Brackett Field Park, Longfellow Park, the Mississippi River, and miles of biking along the Midtown Greenway and River Parkway. Quick access to Saint Paul and major freeways makes commuting a breeze.
