About this home

Enjoy main-level living in this inviting 4-bedroom, 3-bath Brainerd home, thoughtfully designed with warm natural finishes and peaceful views of the private backyard. The spacious living room is framed by windows that bring the outdoors in, creating the unique feeling of living among the trees. Oak hardwood flooring adds timeless character throughout the main level, while a large covered front porch offers a welcoming place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The kitchen is both functional and beautifully finished with custom alder cabinetry and Cambria countertops. Alder woodwork is featured throughout the home, including the kitchen and laundry cabinetry, fireplace surround, wood ceiling, upper-level bedroom walls, lower-level cabinetry, vanity, trim, doors, and closet doors—creating a cohesive, warm, lodge-inspired feel. Cherrywood adds a refined touch in the upper-level vanities and lower-level desk area. The private primary suite provides a comfortable retreat, while the main-level bath features a jetted tub for added relaxation. Spacious bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, office space, or hobbies. The walkout lower level expands the living space with a convenient kitchenette, ample room to gather, and access to a three-season porch overlooking the wooded backyard. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee, hosting friends, or taking in the changing seasons, this home offers comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy. Additional highlights include a finished, insulated two-stall garage with workshop space, a wraparound driveway for easy access and extra parking, and is adjacent to public land ensuring that there will be no neighbors behind you.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
