About this home

Tucked away on an oversized lot filled with perennial gardens and mature trees, this Bloomington gem feels like your own “cabin in the city.” Now improved with a brand new roof on house and garage! Warm wood accents and gas fireplace create an inviting feel throughout the living space, which flows into the dining space. The kitchen has ample cabinet space and opens onto a large mudroom - a must have in Minnesota winters! The home offers 3 bedrooms plus office/flex space, 1.5 bathrooms, and a layout that lives comfortably and efficiently with character around every corner. Outside, you’ll love the peaceful backyard setting featuring a spacious deck and patio - perfect for summer evenings, morning coffee, or entertaining friends. The rare 4-car garage offers incredible flexibility for hobbies, storage, outdoor gear, or extra parking. Located just minutes from freeways, MSP airport, Mall of America and the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge, this home offers the best of both worlds: a quiet, nature-filled setting with easy access to downtown Minneapolis and everyday conveniences. A cozy retreat with cabin vibes—right in the heart of the city.

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.
