1715 W 31st Street, Minneapolis, MN 55408

Property Description

This 1900-built Free Classic Queen Anne Victorian on W 31st Street is as layered as it is lovely: four finished levels totaling 3,049 finished square feet, just a block and a half east of Lake Bde Maka Ska and three blocks south of Lake of the Isles, available only due to seller relocation. The main level opens with a stunning original wood-wrapped staircase, then flows through arched openings into a family room with gas fireplace, formal dining room, and a fully updated kitchen with Bosch appliances; a custom storage cabinet positioned between the kitchen and the main-level powder room makes an ideal coffee station. On the second story, three bedrooms and a one-of-a-kind full bathroom await: hexagonal mosaic floors, a drop-in tub in its own arched subway-tiled alcove, and a full standing shower directly across from it. All the way up in the finished third-story loft, a large flex room serves equally well as a primary bedroom or recreation space, fully climate-controlled with baseboard heat and ductless mini-split A/C; a sitting room and yoga studio on this level could one day become a primary ensuite bath. In the finished basement: a non-conforming fifth bedroom, a 3/4 bath, laundry, and a creative studio with a plumbed-in salon sink ? ready to serve as an art studio, pottery space, or whatever your next chapter requires. Outside, a wraparound front porch with beadboard ceiling, a fenced and fully irrigated backyard with pavers and planting beds, and a 2-car detached garage with 100A EV-capable service finish this crowning example of turn-of-the-century Minneapolis architecture, gently influenced by the Colonial Revival movement of the era. This is the rare South Minneapolis home where historic integrity and modern convenience arrive together, and its location at the lakes makes it near-impossible to replicate.
