Seller wants it sold! Take advantage of some closing costs covered or a 2/1 rate buy-down if closed before Thanksgiving, on top of the already reduced price. Don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to make this Sherwood Forest gem your own.** Experience refined luxury in this beautifully updated home, perched on a private lot with charming curb appeal at the top of a hill in the highly desired Sherwood Forest neighborhood. Perfectly situated just 10 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, Ridgedale Shopping Center, and popular local dining, this home offers the best of both worlds—a peaceful, up-north ambiance with easy access to the city, West End, and Downtown Wayzata. The hilltop setting includes a steep driveway, adding to its picturesque appeal. If a little incline doesn’t deter you, it’s nothing that a 4-wheel drive vehicle and a set of Blizzak winter tires won’t handle—plus, the seller will include two sets at closing. This home features a unique floor plan (see photos) and flexible spaces, and with the recent *$90,000 price reduction,* there’s ample opportunity to update the first floor to your taste. At the heart of the home is the newly remodeled kitchen with high-end Viking appliances, sleek countertops, and generous storage for all your culinary needs. On the upper level, the impressive primary suite includes a spa-like, newly updated bathroom with heated floors and a spacious custom walk-in closet. In total, the home offers 3 bedrooms, an office, and a rec room, while the finished basement includes the 3rd bedroom, 2 additional baths, and cozy heated floors. Recently refinished Australian Cypress wood floors add warmth and elegance throughout. Outside, the low-maintenance backyard features a brand-new deck, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. An oversized heated garage and freshly stained front and garage doors complete this exceptional Sherwood Forest property.
