Historic Stillwater charm as a backdrop for this impeccably maintained and fully transformed cottage-style property. Over $150K in meaningful updates have elevated and fine-tuned the character of this two-story home. Rich wide-plank wood floors, vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, many new Renewal by Andersen windows, along with refinished maple cabinetry and millwork are key design elements. The freshly painted interiors/exterior in a soft neutral color palette, new Cambria counter surfaces, new top-of-the-line stainless-steel appliances, and distinctive lighting pair nicely with the overall restyling. Cohesive floorplan allows for ease of access from one space to another. The second level offers two good-sized bedrooms and shared bath with soaking tub. The improved oversized heated two-car garage features a new furnace and thermostat, new floor drain, new electrical connection for inverter system and a welcoming transition area connecting the garage to the main living area. This space now offers heated tiled flooring, new doors and great storage. A flexible lower level, with walkout access add everyday functionality and is an area a new owner can re-envision while incorporating fabulous storage. The exceptional double lot is a private oasis with lush park-like grounds, enhanced by colorful perennial gardens, curved limestone paths, 5-zone irrigation system with new Rainbird controller and new custom boulder hardscape. A newer Timbertech by Azek maintenance-free deck and new privacy fencing compliment the carefree cement lap siding with new shake accents. A mere two-minute walk to the Lake McKusick walking path, with connections to Oak Glen Golf Course, the Gateway Trail system and proximity to the downtown area for dining and shopping. Easy 20 min access to Twin Cities. A rare opportunity and nice blend of privacy, character, thoughtful updates and beautifully transformed spaces both inside and out, with an unbeatable in-town location!
