Welcome to this charming updated 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home nestled in the highly sought-after Cedarhurst neighborhood within the Hopkins School District. Since purchasing in 2020, the owners have made several significant updates to enhance this home. In 2023, new roofs and siding (both home and garage), deck paint, window screens, and gutters were all installed, ensuring the home is in excellent condition. A radon mitigation system was added in 2021, and the chimney was repaired in 2020, providing added peace of mind for future owners. Located in a peaceful cul-de-sac, this 1.5-story gem offers a perfect blend of comfort and style, and is bigger than it appears on the outside! It is is a rare find, combining modern amenities with a fantastic location! Enjoy a 20-minute walk through this beautiful neighborhood to Cedar Lake, or a 15-minute walk/2-minute drive over to the shops, entertainment, and restaurant options found at The West End! The Cedar Lake Trail is a 4-minute bike ride away, connecting you to over 100 miles of regional trails. The EZ Pass (carpool) lane is 1.5 blocks away, giving you speedy access to downtown Mpls. and Wayzata. The open-concept kitchen, living, and dining area create an inviting space for both everyday living and entertaining guests. The upper level boasts a spacious primary suite, providing a private retreat within the home. The lower level features a cozy family room complete with a wood burning fireplace, perfect for relaxing on chilly evenings. Outside, you’ll find a spacious 2-car garage with additional parking. The backyard is a true oasis, featuring a basketball hoop for fun and exercise, plenty of space for gardening, as well as a hot tub (2021) for unwinding after a long day. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours!
