Welcome to this charming and inviting 3-bed, 2 bath home on an oversized lot on the cul-de-sac of Branch St with gorgeous and dedicated views of Lake Superior! The spacious and bright living room features a lovely stone-faced wood-burning fireplace with built-ins and the formal dining room also has sweet original built-in corner cupboards. The kitchen has beautiful maple cabinets and Ely Gabbro (!) countertops, induction range, and a cute eating peninsula that opens the room to the living room and the view. All three bedrooms are spacious and sunny, and there’s a fun and functional knotty-pine paneled workshop off the 3rd bedroom in the lower level with a walk-out door to the oversized partially-fenced back yard with plantings developed by Shoreview Natives–the bones are there! Both bathrooms are fully tiled and beautifully designed, with silestone countertips, and the lower level full bath has a terrific, deep soaking tub. The oak floors throughout shine upstairs and the lower level is carpeted for warmth. Mechanically, you won’t need to do a thing; the house has been rewired with a new breaker box, plumbing lines replaced including the sewer line that ties into the main line through the backyard, an air-exchange installed and just last year an efficient heat-pump was installed with the furnace as a back-up, which also includes an air conditioning function. And the rear deck is designed for gathering, it’s like being in a treehouse overlooking the many mature pines, while the front yard features lovely birch trees that have been treated regularly to extend their life as well as a vairiety of other species. And, there’s a radon mitigation system! And it’s incredibly efficient. What a great house!
