Directions & Remarks

Public Remarks: Rare scale and timeless 1946 stone-and-brick character on a fully fenced massive double corner lot in coveted Diamond Lake! The huge sunlit living room anchors the main floor with a wood-burning fireplace and a bumped-out bay window. The 2019 Mill City Design-Build kitchen remodel delivers a true chef's space, flowing to a formal dining room wrapped in gorgeous designer wallpaper. Off the kitchen, a stunning wood-paneled office/library connects to the three-season porch, backyard patio, and an expansive yard made for play, gardens, and gatherings. Upstairs, three truly massive bedrooms — 23×15, 20×12, and 18×16 — are a true find in the city, served by a charming vintage full primary bath plus an updated 3/4 bath; a vintage 1/2 bath completes the main floor. The lower level surprises with higher-than-typical ceilings and a cozy 30×15 wood-paneled family room with a vintage bar, warmed by a gas fireplace. Hardwood floors and classic millwork add warmth at every turn. Big-ticket items are done: roof (2014), central air (2020), and a brand-new Pentair whole-house water filtration system. Hard-to-find private driveway plus attached two-car garage with convenient entry off the kitchen. Minutes to Diamond Lake, Lake Nokomis, parks, and trails - homes with this size, character, and lot simply don't come along often!
Directions: Portland Ave S to 59th St E to Oakland Ave, right on corner of 59th & Oakland.
