5236 16th Avenue S Welcome to the heart of the Hale neighborhood. Morning coffees out front overlooking Lake Nokomis, Triangle Park around the corner, Minnehaha Creek just up the hill, and even glimpses of wildlife. Winters mean sledding, summers mean swimming. The sellers take real pride in being stewards of this home and have carefully restored and renovated over the years to preserve character while adding modern convenience. Woodwork has been brought back to its original splendor. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with new cabinets, Cambria quartz countertops, tile floor, and appliances. The main floor has large East facing windows in the living room to let in morning light and the kitchen has South and West facing windows to soak in afternoon and evening sunshine. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom as well as laundry on the main floor. The washer and dryer are both new. Two more bedrooms, including the primary which features a gas fireplace, on the lower level with the family room. The kitchen steps out to the large back deck. The oversized garage and concrete driveway offer ample parking and storage. You will appreciate the blend of old and new in the home.
