Welcome to the highly sought-after Hale neighborhood, where classic character meets thoughtful updates—just a short walk to Minnehaha Creek, Lake Nokomis, and miles of scenic trails. This home blends timeless architecture with modern function in one of Hale’s most desirable locations. The open main-level layout is ideal for entertaining, with the kitchen opened to overlook the living and dining areas. A light-filled sunroom wrapped in windows provides a bright transition to the outdoors. Step out the back door to a newer deck, large concrete patio, green space, and a fully fenced backyard. The kitchen features a cooktop stove, abundant cabinetry and counter space, a Bosch dishwasher, double oven, and a breakfast bar. Hardwood floors run throughout the main level, adding warmth and continuity. This home also offers exceptional room to grow. The upper-level expansion area serves as the 3rd bedroom, creating valuable additional living space. The 955 sq ft basement offers opportunity for future expansion, with room for a 4th bedroom, additional bath, and family room—allowing for a minimum of 2,200 sq ft finished. Neighborhood homes support these improvements, providing confidence for long-term value. Out back, the large newer 2-car heated garage includes 250 AMP service with an RV hookup. A spacious concrete pad accommodates RV parking or serves as an expansive patio for outdoor living. Additional guest parking in front of the garage sits on a well-maintained concrete pad.
