About this home

Some homes fizzle. This one’s a firecracker! And amazing views of Bloomington’s July 3rd fireworks are just the opening act. Welcome to the Poplar Bridge neighborhood, where you can stroll around Normandale Lake, grab a burrito at Pancheros or enjoy a patio bevy at Full Tilt Tavern, then head home in time to watch Bloomington’s July 3rd fireworks from your own backyard. This updated 4-bedroom, 3-bath home has all the big-ticket items already done: new roof, siding, and Renewal by Andersen windows in 2019. Inside, you’ll find three bedrooms on one level, a beautifully renovated full bathroom, and a beautiful primary suite with an updated half bath. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, updated lighting, and an open flow into the spacious dining area with easy access to the backyard. Outside? It’s the kind of yard everyone wants but few actually find. A newer deck, oversized patio, Rainbow playset, and plenty of room to play, entertain, or simply enjoy a little peace and quiet. The finished lower level adds a large family room with recessed lighting and plush carpet, plus a 4th bedroom with a walk-in closet and an adjacent ¾ bath, making it the perfect setup for guests, a home office or workout space. And because real life comes with hockey bags, holiday bins, and the occasional “I’ll deal with it later” pile… this home has you covered. If you’re the type who actually uses storage (we see you), you’ll love the unfinished storage space and separate laundry room that keeps everything tucked away. There’s truly a place for everything and everyone. See you today, celebrate with sparklers tomorrow!

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.
