Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

If you haven’t been to this amazing little corner of South Mpls, you don’t know what you’re missing. Incredible opportunity awaits with this 4BR home w/ a partially finished basement and a 2-car garage in one of, if not the lowest traffic neighborhoods in the entire city. Great location for adults, kids, and walks with the dog. Adjacent to MSP Airport, but surrounded by the Air Force Reserve base on three sides, it’s not aligned with any of the runways. The neighborhood experiences considerably less airplane noise than the south end of Lake Nokomis, yet the home received noise abatement improvements from the MAC. Nestled away from the rest of the City, but close to Minnehaha Falls and the Parkway providing bike connection to the Chain of Lakes, with neighborhood retail nearby on 34th Avenue. Some call this part of the Morris Park neighborhood “the island”. Others call it “the peninsula”. Don’t miss your chance to call it “home”.
