About this home

Nestled amongst trees and native woodland plants in sought-after Lynnhurst sits this lovely craftsman bungalow, just a short walk to Minnehaha Creek. This home has been thoughtfully updated, balancing restored vintage details with modern functionality. A sunny front porch invites you into the living room where tall ceilings, original hardwood floors, and wavy glass windows set the tone. Craftsman built-ins flank the entrance to the dining room which features a full-length built-in buffet against the far wall and sculptural modern lighting that complements the original sconces. Windows along the south & west walls let tons of afternoon light pour in. The kitchen features original birch cabinets along with all new appliances, ventilation, and zellige tile. Off the kitchen at the back of the house sits a bonus family room which features all new windows overlooking the backyard as well as a back entrance. Through the kitchen is a second bedroom and bathroom, where the original clawfoot tub was restored while everything else from the plumbing to the vanity has been updated. Connected to the bathroom and the front living room is the large primary bedroom with plenty of closet space. Outside, you’ll find what can be best described as an enchanted garden, where many varieties of plants bloom throughout the summer and tall trees provide shade. There is a large two car garage with a brick paver driveway and a variety of walking paths throughout the yard made of wood, brick, and stone.  Don’t miss the spray-foam insulated walk-up attic or the unfinished basement ready for expansion. This home has been intentionally and lovingly updated by its current owners; see list of home highlights for a detailed list of all updates!

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.
