5128 Irving Avenue S

A rare opportunity to join a coveted block in the Lynnhurst neighborhood. On a generous Lot and a Half, the unique traditional 4 Bedroom, 3 bathroom home was built in 1927.
Situated a half-block from Minnehaha Creek parkway, Lynnhurst Park and Burroughs Elementary, it offers easy walking distance to green spaces and miles of Parkway/walking/ biking trails and to Lake Harriet. The exterior boasts steeply pitched roof lines with French doors to a lovely screened side porch opening into the living room with a separate exterior entrance. The interior shines with immaculate wooden floors. An open, spindled staircase leads to the upper level, a generous upper windowed landing and access to each of the 4 bedrooms, a full bath, and a lovely 3/4 bath with a walk-in shower.
The second level has 4 spacious bedrooms with more beautiful hardwood floors. The Master Bedroom has a walk-in closet with a window and 2 separate interior closets, and the 4th bedroom is attached to an outdoor deck/balcony. The house is trimmed with extensive crown moldings and baseboards. The living room has a mantled brick-faced, glass-enclosed fireplace between shuttered windows, and an arched built-in shelving feature. The living room continues past the open staircase and flows into the formal dining room, which is adjacent to the separate eat-in kitchen. The kitchen has stainless appliances, with new refrigerator and range, high ceilings and large windows. In the rear of the house there is a large, sunny family room with a gas brick fireplace and an adjacent half bath. The spacious fenced back yard has mature trees, and spaces to enjoy time on the patio. The extra large lot offers exceptional space to create beautiful gardens. A detached double garage and a concrete driveway off the alley for up to 3 cars supplements available on-street parking on Irving Avenue.
