Property Description

The South Minneapolis location buyers wait years for. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Lynnhurst, 5104 Newton Avenue South presents a rare opportunity to own in one of the city’s most coveted, walkable enclaves—where lifestyle, nature, and neighborhood prestige naturally converge. Step outside and choose your direction: Lake Harriet’s trails and shoreline, the boutiques and dining of 50th & France, neighborhood favorites like Broders, or the cafés and shops along Penn and 54th are all just moments away. Despite this unmatched access, the home feels quietly tucked away, set on a high-demand block with minimal turnover and surrounded by million-dollar-plus homes. Perched above Minnehaha Creek with unobstructed park views, the setting is exceptionally private and serene—an increasingly rare find in the city. More than $100,000 in exterior improvements, professionally designed landscaping, and a stone patio create an elevated outdoor living experience that evolves beautifully with each season. Inside, timeless character remains intact. Original hardwood floors, arched doorways, restored windows with modern storm protection, and enduring craftsmanship reflect the home’s thoughtful care. The upper-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a private bath and generous storage, while a flat backyard and detached two-car garage add everyday convenience. Meticulously and intentionally cared for by the same owners for nearly 20 years, pride of ownership is felt throughout and offers true peace of mind. Turnkey today with meaningful future upside, the home offers multiple expansion possibilities—including the potential for a basement bedroom and bathroom, an additional upper-level bedroom, or a kitchen expansion—providing flexibility to grow with you and your family (see renovation notes). This is more than a home; it’s an opportunity to secure a piece of South Minneapolis that has become increasingly rare to find and buy into.
