A rare architectural gem in a prestigious SW Minneapolis location, this historic Purcell & Strauel home is just steps from Minnehaha Creek and close to Lake Harriet, parks, shops, and restaurants. Thoughtfully updated yet rich in original charm, it features expansive rooms, two gas fireplaces, hardwood floors, and various living spaces for relaxing with friends and family. The stunning kitchen with center island flows into the sunroom and out to a spacious deck overlooking the large, professionally landscaped, fenced yard. This classic home is move-in ready. Enjoy summer evenings on the deck or patio, gathered around the built-in stone fire pit surrounded by soaring pine, cedar, and maple trees. This is a rare find in a prime location! Walk, run, bike, or paddle on M'haha Creek and easily connect with the city lakes and renowned Grand Rounds Scenic Byway. Designed and built in 1929 by William Gray Purcell in collaboration with Frederick Strauel; this home was featured on the Minneapolis Institute of Arts Architectural Tours. Note the 2-story polygonal bay, Roman bricks, half-timbers and stucco, with deeply set multi-paned windows next to the front door, the slanted chimney with brick accents, carved rafter tails peeking out from under the eaves and Purcell's trademark beam that sticks out past the right edge of the entry porch. A true work of art and Minneapolis history!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
