About this home

Classic two-story Colonial located on one of the best blocks in the Kenny neighborhood of Southwest Minneapolis. The main level blends timeless character with inviting, flexible spaces, including a formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace that opens to a light-filled sunroom, a formal dining room, and an updated eat-in kitchen. The kitchen seamlessly connects to the family room and features quartz countertops, hardwood floors, a tile backsplash, and a new Sub-Zero refrigerator. The family room boasts a striking stone gas fireplace and opens directly to the private backyard, which includes a paver patio and pergola which is perfect for entertaining or relaxing outdoors. Upstairs, four bedrooms include a generous primary suite with a three-quarter bath featuring heated floors and a walk-in tiled shower. A private upper-level deck, accessible from both the primary bedroom and the fourth bedroom, offers a peaceful outdoor escape. The finished lower level provides additional living space with a comfortable family room, while a two-car garage with an EV charger completes this well-cared-for home.

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.
