812 5th Avenue SE

Classic, 3 owner home in beautiful Marcy Holmes neighborhood.  Easy walking distance to the U of M, St. Anthony Main area, Stone Arch Bridge, local restaurants and downtown Minneapolis.  School choices include Marcy Open K-8, just four blocks away.  Pride of ownership shows here, lovingly maintained by the same owners for 27 years!
 
Many improvements including new tear off roof, fascia and soffit boards in 2004, all exterior house and garage replaced with cedar lap siding, recent exterior paint.  New AZEK front porch flooring and plinths-look original but never degrade.  New porch columns.  Many mechanical updates, too:  Newer boiler, lots of insulation.
 
First floor has original, untouched natural wood work and beautiful buffet, plus lovely leaded glass windows.  Many period light fixtures.  4 bedrooms are on the 2nd level plus dynamite 3rd floor family/media room, enlarged and enhanced by the current owners with additional dormers and new Velux skylight. 
 
Rare first floor 1/2 bath plus 2nd floor bath with claw foot tub.  Both baths have original high-tank toilets — absolutely functional, just like the day they were installed!  Big back yard is great for gardening.  Oversized double garage has attached screened patio wired to the cable TV & sound system from the main house.  Perfect for summer parties!
