Charming 1929 two-story Tudor in the heart of Linden Hills, where timeless character meets thoughtful modern updates. This classic home truly lives large, with remarkably spacious living & dining rooms, beautiful original details & a floor plan that makes the most of every square foot. Extensive improvements enhance the home while preserving its character. The owner’s suite now features a private ¾ bath with heated towel bar & custom fitted closets and fantastic private balcony. Carpeting was removed to reveal original wood floors, adding warmth & character throughout. The refreshed kitchen features enameled cabinetry with updated brass hardware, marble countertops & continuous marble backsplash, custom-built peninsula, new appliances & upgraded lighting. The remodeled lower level adds valuable living space with a legal fourth bedroom featuring two south-facing egress windows, a new ¾ bath also with heated towel bar & bamboo flooring. The finished laundry area provides flexible space for an exercise room, hobby area or workspace, while new walls & doors separate the utility & storage/gym areas. Additional improvements include a whole house smart-home system, central air conditioning, a new membrane porch roof & new electrical meter. Outside, enjoy a private, fully fenced backyard with no alley—ideal for relaxing, entertaining, gardening or play. The location is hard to beat—just blocks from Bde Maka Ska & Lake Harriet, with Linden Hills shops, restaurants & cafés nearby, plus the Lake Harriet Bandshell, parks & trails. Served by award-winning Lake Harriet Community School & Southwest High School. Classic Tudor charm, generous spaces & extensive modern updates—all in one of Minneapolis’ most beloved neighborhoods.
