Listing details for 3207 E 36th St, Minneapolis, MN 55406 : Dear reader, take a seat and get comfy! This description is going to be as detailed as the love, consideration, and care poured into this home. Curves, character, and 100 years of timeless charm — this 1925 Craftsman bungalow with Spanish Mission flair is in better shape than ever. Everywhere you look, graceful arches and intentional details set the tone: rounded window openings, curved wall transitions, an arched garage door, coved ceilings, and traditional crown moulding. Every line has been lovingly preserved to honor its vintage soul while blending in all the modern comforts of today. The heart of the home? An $80,000 professionally designed, gut-to-the-studs kitchen remodel that marries old-world craftsmanship with modern function: custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry with crown moulding and undercabinet lighting, quartz countertops, undermount enamel Kohler sink, recycled glass backsplash, chef’s GE gas range with venting hood, Bosch dishwasher, and French-door fridge. Beyond the kitchen, the home keeps dazzling: two spacious 3-season porches, a prohibition-era basement bar (with stories to tell), a mint-condition oak buffet, and jewel-toned cerulean and teal paint treatments that make the space feel vibrant and unique. The main floor bedroom offers convenience, while the upstairs provides an unusually generous second bedroom with en suite potential. (Technically non-conforming due to ceiling clearance at the stairwell landing — but easily remedied, as the room itself is tall, wide, and spacious.) Step outside to find a lovingly landscaped yard wrapped in a cedar privacy fence, complete with a custom circle paver patio — a $13,000 investment that transformed the outdoor space into a private, picture-perfect retreat. Recent updates include: new roofs on house and garage, fresh paint & new vinyl siding, new whole-house gutter system (all in 2023), updated wiring, updated bath with exterior-venting fan, and thermal-pane windows throughout (except two original French windows left in place to preserve the Mission-style character). Mechanicals are solid, the basement is bright and dry with good ceiling height, and a buyer’s choice home warranty (up to $700) is included for peace of mind. The accessories are just as impressive: a newer 2-stall garage built on a full course of block, with new siding, LiftMaster opener, keypad entry, and that graceful curved door. And the location? Top notch. Nestled in the sought-after Howe neighborhood, this home is close to the Blue Line light rail, Minnehaha Falls, and local gems like Howe Daily Kitchen, WildFlyer Coffee, and The Scoop Ice Cream. A century of character, refreshed with over $125,000 worth of today’s comforts — this home has been cared for with intention and is move-in ready for its next owner.
