Perched high above Minnehaha Parkway, this extraordinary residence captures the beauty, character and romance of the Lynnhurst neighborhood in Southwest Minneapolis. Set atop a gentle hill with stunning treetop views overlooking Minnehaha Parkway and Minnehaha Creek, the property enjoys an exceptional sense of privacy and connection to nature. A magnificent old-growth white pine and entertainment sized blue stone patio frame the front of the home and is a perfect setting for a morning coffee, evening gathering or relaxation while taking in the changing seasons. There is also a fenced in yard on the backside of the home with multiple access points which add to the convenience and utility of the home. Inside, the home offers the expected grace and craftsmanship of the 1920s, well preserved and thoughtfully stewarded through the years. Original architectural character blends seamlessly with improvements designed for today's lifestyle. The heart of the home is a stunning kitchen and main-level family-room renovation. This is a perfect blend of spaces including a chef's kitchen, breakfast island and entertainment area with exceptional connectedness and light-filled, intuitive space. Also of note is the spacious foyer, living room and dining room spaces with all of the charm and character one would expect from a 1924 custom built home. With five bedrooms and four finished levels, there is remarkable space and flexibility for family, guests, work and entertaining. The upper levels include wonderful entertainment space, office and bedroom accommodations that provide room for everyone. Updated baths include an exceptional primary suite, bringing contemporary comfort and utility to this classic home. Homes with this combination of 1920s character, thoughtful renovation, multiple finished levels and elevated Minnehaha Parkway location are rarely available in this special Lynnhurst offering.
