Property Description

Located in a peaceful and established New Brighton neighborhood backing directly onto Hansen Park, this vintage 1969 home offers a rare opportunity to own a lovingly maintained property held by the same family for 54 years. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, two fireplaces and attached garage, the home offers flexible living space in an exceptional park-side setting on a quiet street. Vintage character throughout, featuring original wood paneling in the living room and den, inviting gathering spaces, and beautiful views of the surrounding green space and a pond that's a hotspot for birdwatching. The lower-level walkout basement adds incredible versatility with a large den/family room, workshop area, large utility room, and additional storage space that could become a studio, project room, or additional bedroom (with the addition of an egress window). Hansen Park serves as a true extension of the backyard, offering direct access to walking trails, a renovated playground and pavilion, pickleball courts, skating rink, baseball diamonds, picnic areas, an 18-hole disc golf course, and expansive open green space for year-round enjoyment. Conveniently located in one of the best school districts in the state, near shopping and restaurants, and offering easy access to both Minneapolis and St. Paul, this is a unique chance to enjoy a peaceful, character-filled home in one of New Brighton's most desirable park-side locations.
