Get to know this property.

A country setting in the city! Located in the desirable SE corner of South Maplewood along the border of Woodbury, this hidden gem provides endless potential on nearly two-acres of beautiful natural surroundings. Discover this spacious 4+ bedroom (office or need a 5th bedroom? your choice) retreat, perfectly situated on 1.82 acres of picturesque land blending mature woods with open spaces and gentle rolling terrain. Offering the perfect mix of privacy and convenience, this home sits directly along the quaint Fish Creek Natural Area/Preserve, with Carver Lake Park and beach just steps away for fishing, swimming, hiking, biking, playgrounds, and relaxing pavilions. There are miles & miles of superb scenic walking & biking trails all within a few short minutes. Make this the summer of fun! You’ll also appreciate the quick, easy access to Hwy 494/694 & Hwy 61/94. Relax with your morning coffee on the front deck or grab your favorite refreshment and BBQ on the back deck. All while watching the abundant wildlife including deer, turkeys & foxes that will commonly visit. The main level here boasts over 1,550 square feet of generous, comfortable living space filled with natural light thanks to near floor-to-ceiling newer Anderson windows and sliding patio door. The dramatic 3-sided full stone Italian marble fireplace serves as a stunning focal point for gatherings. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers a convenient walk-through access to the bathroom, plus two additional bedrooms (or flexible office/bedroom options). The walk-out lower level is fully equipped with its own kitchen, creating fantastic opportunities for extended family living, multi-generational setup, or potential investment/rental income. Practical features abound: an extra-deep main garage (26’) that easily fits larger vehicles, plus a massive 26x38 heated and insulated second garage/shop with two large overhead doors, 220 power, plenty of outlets, and excellent lighting—ideal for hobbies, storage, or workspace. This solid, character-filled home is ready for your personal vision. With your added touches, you can transform it into your dream property while enjoying the incredible location, expansive land, and thoughtful layout that’s hard to find. With close to 3,000 square feet of living space, you have a rare opportunity to create something special in a peaceful, nature-rich setting!
