Designed and built by wb Builders, this home is a rare expression of craftsmanship and design in one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Minneapolis. Behind a modern Tudor with stucco facade, sweeping rooflines, an arched entry, and black windows, the home unfolds into a series of spaces that balance Old World soul with a modern, collected edge. Inside, sculpted archways, rich hardwood floors, and hand selected finishes set an unmistakable tone. The main level living room centers on a fireplace framed in smooth plaster, while walls of windows draw in natural light and the greenery beyond. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen is a study in texture and warmth. Custom cabinetry, a stunning blend of concrete and marble counters, and a substantial island with seating anchor the space, paired with a custom blackened steel range hood, a brick backsplash, open shelving, and a professional grade appliance suite. The adjoining dining area is wrapped in windows and glass doors open to the rear patio. A planning desk makes its own statement with dramatic steel framed accents, a reclaimed wood counter and practical storage. Outdoor living is equally considered. A covered rear porch features a wood paneled ceiling, integrated sound, and a lounge seating area with a cozy natural burning fireplacea true retreat in the middle of the city. Upstairs, the bedrooms are light and serene, including a primary retreat with custom cabinetry, treetop views through oversized windows and a beautifully curated full bathroom. Two junior bedrooms, a three-quarter bathroom, and laundry room with a generous amount of storage complete the upper level. The lower level shifts the mood entirely. A dramatic family room is anchored by a blackened steel fireplace wall, a reclaimed wood mantel, and polished concrete floors offers an ideal setting for gathering and entertaining. A dedicated fitness area with an exposed brick accent wall and heat panels allows you to amplify your workout. The 4th bedroom, a three-quarter bathroom, and generous storage space round out the lower level. The location is second to none. Set on a classic tree lined street, the home places you within an easy walk of multiple lakes and the beloved Linden Hills, where boutique shopping, sidewalk cafes, and celebrated restaurants sit just moments from your door. Homes of this craftsmanship and character, in a location this coveted, come along rarely.
Linden Hills, located between Lake Harriet and Bde Maka Ska, is a residential and walkable Minneapolis neighborhood with a lakeside setting and a village-style commercial node. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the 43rd Street & Upton Avenue crossroads, where indie boutiques, coffee counters, and patio dining line compact blocks. Tudor revivals, Craftsman bungalows, and brick colonials shape leafy streets that slope toward the Chain of Lakes trails. Lake Harriet Bandshell sets the seasonal soundtrack, while the Linden Hills Co-op anchors everyday errands. Wild Rumpus Books and Sebastian Joe’s Ice Cream keep the corner culture lively.
