Description
Charming 1940s Cape Cod steps from Lake Phalen! White stucco Cape Cod on a quiet Eastside street, with the kind of original character that 1940s construction does best and newer homes can't fake. Arched doorways flow between the living and dining rooms, hardwood floors run through the main level, and a wood-burning fireplace anchors the front room. The kitchen pairs vintage charm with everyday function: a tile floor, a gas range, and a stainless dishwasher, with room to make it your own. The main-floor layout is the quiet winner here. Two bedrooms and the full bath all sit on one level, an easy single-floor setup that's surprisingly hard to find. Upstairs, a third bedroom with vaulted ceilings and hardwood floors is paired with a light-filled sitting room that works just as well as a home office, studio, or reading nook. Downstairs, a freshly carpeted family room adds flexible living space, alongside a laundry room (with new washer and dryer) and a dedicated workshop with built-in shelving and a workbench. The lower level also has a toilet already in place and the plumbing roughed in, making a future second bath a realistic and affordable add. Out back, mature trees and established garden beds frame plenty of room for summer evenings outside. A one-car garage rounds it out. Recent updates mean less to worry about and more to enjoy: new basement carpet, new washer and dryer, new water heater, and leaf-guard gutter filters already installed. The location is the kind people search for and rarely find at this price. Walk to Lake Phalen, Phalen Golf Course, and the regional park trails, with the Payne Avenue corridor and its coffee shops, breweries, and neighborhood restaurants just minutes away. Come see why this one feels like home!
