Linden Hills living, one block from Minikahda and moments from the shore of Bde Maka Ska. Set on a quiet stretch of Abbott Avenue South, this three-bedroom, four-bath home offers over 3,300 finished square feet with room to gather, room to work, and room to breathe. Two wood-burning fireplaces bring warmth to the living spaces, and the highly functional eat-in kitchen keeps everyday life and entertaining flowing easily. The recently remodeled owner's suite is a true retreat, complete with a steam shower, infloor heat, walk in closet and loft. Four baths mean mornings run smoothly and guests are always comfortable. The walkout lower level adds a recreation room, second family room, wine cellar space, screened porch and laundry. Outside, the large deck and ground-level patio with fire pit set the stage for summer dinners and crisp fall nights alike. An attached two-car garage handles Minnesota winters, and a separate shed keeps bikes, kayaks and garden gear neatly out of the way. Step beyond the yard and the city's best is at your door: the paths around Bde Maka Ska and Lake Harriet, the shops and restaurants of 43rd and Upton, and quick routes downtown. Homes in this pocket of Linden Hills are rarely offered and quickly remembered. Thoughtful space, an unmatched setting, and the ease of city lakes living in one address.
