Built by a lumber and hardware retailer sparing no details, this one-of-a-kind, beautiful Victorian home is now proudly offered for sale...for only the fourth time since it was built in 1904!
Its space, elegance and charm make it a gracious home for entertaining...and a wonderful home for living!

The third bedroom, currently used as an office, also features leaded glass windows, original wall sconces and a walk-in closet. Like the other bedrooms, the floor has been refinished.

The room above, which makes a great guest room, is technically not a bedroom because it does not have a closet. It features an original light fixture and a peek at the Minneapolis skyline.

THIRD FLOOR - maple flooring

Originally the ballroom, the finished third floor is a spacious 20’ x 22’ and features leaded glass ‘fish-scale’ windows. With 9 foot ceilings, a skylight, and windows on all four sides this floor has a light, spacious feeling.
Currently used as a bedroom and office, with a large closet, it would also make a great family room...or add a bath for a stunning master suite!
