Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Welcome home to 1586 Grotto Ave. N.! This well-loved Como Park charmer blends genuine character with an impressive list of updates already done for you. Inside, you'll find hand-painted "cloud" ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and beautifully refinished wood floors. New Andersen windows were added to the primary bedroom and kitchen, along with new front and back doors (2010). The roof features GAF Country Mansion designer shingles (2014), and the backyard was transformed into a private sanctuary with a custom Japanese butterfly garden, flagstone patio and walkways, and raised garden beds (2014). A Mitsubishi mini-split provides year-round comfort (2015). The second bedroom is a true standout: Marvin windows, oak hardwood floors with tasteful, intricate walnut and maple inlays, and custom built-ins including a Murphy bed, tip-up window seat (with convenient storage below), and glass-doored bookcase (2016). This room flexes beautifully as a bedroom, exceptional home office, or cozy reading retreat. The primary bedroom also gained a custom walk-in closet that same year. Other updates: LeafGuard gutters, new front and back decks, a newer furnace (2019), new water heater (2020), and a full security camera system (2022). The clean, spacious basement awaits your ideas for finished living space or an additional bedroom (egress required). And the extra spacious 3-car garage, perfect for enthusiasts, is a very rare find in Como Park! All of this just steps from Como Zoo & Conservatory, Como Lake, and the golf course, with easy access to Snelling, I-94, and Hwy 36 for quick connections to both downtowns. Don't miss!
