Own a distinctive piece of Rutledge history in this beautifully updated home, originally built as the
Bank of Rutledge. Thoughtfully renovated in 2023, the property combines modern comfort with unforgettable original character, including exposed brickwork inside and out, original upper-level hardwood floors, staircase, and interior doors. The renovation added a practical main-level layout with a new entry and laundry area, bedroom with walk-in closet, and a 3/4 bathroom. The attached garage was reconfigured into a single-car garage to make room for these updates.
Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and an exceptionally spacious bathroom.
The basement features the concrete-walled room that once served as the bank’s vault, a unique reminder of the home’s one-of-a-kind past. The original vault doors and fixtures are no longer present, but the concrete walls remain. Additional recent improvements include newer windows, a new roof, and a newly poured concrete driveway. Set on a landscaped corner lot with beautiful perennials and a garden space, the property also includes a detached single-car garage converted into storage for toys and tools, and a charming three-season porch-style room perfect for enjoying Minnesota’s warmer months. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy modern updates while owning a part of history.
