There's something incredibly reassuring about a home that has been quietly improved over time. Not overdone. Not stripped of its character. Just thoughtfully updated, well maintained, and easy to imagine yourself settling into.
Nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac in the Maple Leaf Woods neighborhood, this home offers over 1,900 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, and two fully renovated bathrooms, with a layout that blends versatility and charm. The improvements here are substantial. The roof is just two years old. All windows and patio doors have been replaced with exceptional Andersen Windows. Vinyl siding, a water softener, and a furnace and AC that are less than ten years old. A brand new deck with maintenance-free railing expands the outdoor living space, and the insulated, heated two-car garage is ready for Minnesota winters.
The main level includes two bedrooms, including a spacious primary with recessed lighting, distinctive ceiling detail, and a sizable walk-in closet. A second bedroom on this floor works beautifully for guests, a nursery, or a dedicated office, and the full bathroom is updated with clean, timeless finishes. Natural light fills the living room through oversized front windows, reflecting off hardwood floors and giving the space a warm, open feel. The kitchen and dining area connect easily, centered around a generous island that naturally becomes the heart of daily living. Stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, and a serene window over the sink overlooking the backyard keep the space functional and bright. Sliding glass doors lead directly to the new deck, creating an easy flow for everyday routines and weekend gatherings.
The lower level adds even more flexibility with a third bedroom, fully renovated bathroom, and a spacious family room that features a gas fireplace, brand new flooring, and built-in surround sound. A dedicated laundry room with built-in cabinetry keeps things organized, and the walk-out leads to a stamped concrete patio and fully fenced backyard with a storage shed.
Location is another standout feature! About 20 miles south of the Twin Cities, with quick access to Highway 169, 35W, and 13, getting anywhere you want to go is simple, while the setting remains peaceful and green. Nearby parks and trails, including Murphy Hanrehan Park Reserve and Cleary Lake Regional Park, offer year-round outdoor recreation. Everyday essentials like Fresh Thyme Market, Cub Foods, and Target are minutes away, along with a variety of well-loved local restaurants like Casa Deli, Buffalo Tap, Crooked Pint, and the Windmill Cafe. The Savage Farmer's Market also runs Sundays in the summer near the historic Train Depot, and Canterbury Park, Hyland Park, Buck Hill, MSP Airport, and the Eagan Outlet Mall are all within easy reach. Prior Lake is also just down the street, providing easy access for summer boating, swimming, and paddleboarding, or winter ice fishing and skating.
This is a home that blends solid updates, flexible living space, and a location that truly connects you to everything. It has been thoughtfully improved while keeping the warmth and character that make a house feel like home. Come see it in person, walk through the rooms, step out onto the deck, and imagine your life unfolding here!
