Charming 1924-built two-story home offering 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a detached 2-car garage, situated on a .20-acre fenced lot. The home features hardwood floors and a kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Enjoy additional outdoor living space with a rear screened porch, deck, and patio. This home is in need of TLC, repairs, and updating, but offers plenty of character and excellent upside potential for the buyer looking to renovate and make it their own. A great opportunity to build equity and bring new life to this classic home!
Robbinsdale-Crystal-New Hope, located between Highway 100 and I-94, is a residential and commercial Golden Valley neighborhood with mid-century ramblers and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the West Broadway Avenue corridor near downtown Robbinsdale, where sidewalk cafes, old-school storefronts, and local bars set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Architectural lines lean toward postwar one-level homes, with occasional brick duplexes and tidy apartment courts. Crystal Lake Regional Park adds water views and looping paths that shape daily routines. Wicked Wort Brewing Company, Travail Kitchen and Amusements, and the Robbinsdale Theater anchor the local culture with a distinctly independent streak. Streets feel green and practical, with small retail clusters stitched between larger arterials.
