5741 13th AVE S Minneapolis, MN 55417

Built in 1942 and renovated top-to-bottom in 2022, this 1.5-story Diamond Lake bungalow is the rare South Minneapolis home that delivers old-home character and a fully updated interior in equal measure. Original hardwood floors carry through the main-level living room, dining room, hallway, and both bedrooms, while the kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a tile backsplash. A sliding glass door off the informal dining area opens to a 163-square-foot rear deck and a fully fenced backyard that looks out over Edward Solomon Park. The upper level belongs entirely to the primary suite: a lofted retreat with 7-foot ceilings, two walk-in closets, and a full ensuite bath with a tiled shower and quartz vanity. Downstairs, the finished basement adds a family room, bonus space, a legal fourth bedroom with egress, and a 3/4 bath - meaning there is a shower on every level of this home, which is nearly impossible to find in a 1940s build. A new HVAC system (2024) and a detached two-car garage with a concrete pad for two additional vehicles round out a home that is completely move-in ready. Edward Solomon Park, Lake Nokomis, Todd Park, and Diamond Lake anchor the surroundings, with the dining and shopping along 48th & Chicago and Nicollet Avenue mere minutes away. The 5-8 Club, Kowalski's, and Guava's Cuban Cafe are local staples, with quick freeway access to Richfield, Bloomington, MSP Airport, the Mall of America, and IKEA putting the broader metro within easy reach. For the buyer who wants true South Minneapolis immersion with none of the elbow grease, 5741 13th Avenue S delivers the best of Diamond Lake living.
