Rare opportunity in Cobblecrest on one of the biggest lots in the entire neighborhood, this Mid-Century Modern Home is a reverse rambler rare find. One of the largest lots in Cobblecrest at 0.78 acres, it backs up to a 2.48 acre marsh that is overflow from Minnehaha Creek. Birds, deer, and animals galore to see from the backyard. This time capsule Mid-Century Modern House features a Rare Reverse Ranch floor plan with 4 bedrooms on the main level and living areas downstairs. But the lot line on the right side appears to potentially accommodate a garage on the right side to convert the large garage into a huge space for living/dining area on the main floor if a buyer wanted to change that. MCM Bathroom features square Cinderella Tub with Mamie-Pink Tiles throughout. Lower Level features two walkout locations, one to a paver stone patio with imported Blue Stone retaining wall (extra pieces staying), the other to the flat spacious shaded backyard. Exterior had repairs done and has been painted, hardwood floors inside have been refinished, fresh paint throughout and more! New AC & Bryant Furnace replaced less than 2 years ago and Leaf guards added to gutters 3 years ago. Water heater replaced 3 years ago. Kitchen features timeless luxury Italian Range. Home electrical upgraded to 200 amps. This MCM Gem is awaiting your personal touches! Mint Kawai Piano negotiable. Backyard features a deck structure far out by the marsh for immersing yourself in nature. Don’t miss this rare opportunity!
