4745 14th Avenue S This standout 1-1/2 story bungalow steps from Minnehaha Creek offers a rare combination of preserved craftsmanship and forward-thinking design. Rich hardwood floors, original built-ins, and beautifully maintained woodwork create a warm, inviting feel, while carefully integrated updates bring the home comfortably into modern living. The kitchen is bright and efficient, anchored by a sunny breakfast/sunroom, and has ample storage. The home’s flexible upper and lower level spaces provide room to adapt and grow—whether for work, relaxation, or guests. Thoughtful storage solutions add to the home’s everyday ease and high-speed fiber internet provides fast, reliable connectivity. One of the home’s most impressive features is the fully integrated Tesla solar roof system, which goes far beyond traditional panels. Designed with sleek glass tiles that blend seamlessly into the roofline, it delivers a clean, high-end look while offering exceptional durability against hail, wind, and fire. The system produces enough energy to offset electric costs—often generating a surplus—while also benefiting from utility buyback programs. Additional improvements made during installation, including new roof decking, enhanced ventilation, and upgraded gutters and fascia, further elevate both performance and longevity. It’s a true standout feature that combines sustainability, resilience, and long-term value in a way rarely seen. Comfort and efficiency continue throughout the home with a high-efficiency gas furnace and electric heat pump system, newly installed in 2026, that provides year-round climate control, all managed by a smart thermostat. The garage is equipped for modern living as well, offering convenient electric vehicle charging with access to discounted off-peak rates. The lower level features a cozy theater-style retreat with updated finishes, integrated media storage, and concealed wiring for a clean, streamlined look. In the kitchen, a premium induction range with dual ovens and advanced cooking features is paired with a vented hood that exhausts directly outdoors. Step outside to enjoy a private, professionally landscaped backyard complete with a patio designed for entertaining or unwinding. A multi-zone sprinkler system keeps the grounds looking their best, while an additional storage shed adds everyday practicality. Behind the scenes, improvements such as chimney restoration and structural landscaping enhancements contribute to the home’s overall integrity. All of this just steps from neighborhood restaurants, parks, schools, and shopping. See supplement for more information.
