A Northfield Gem on the Coveted East Side

This move-in ready, turn-of-the-century treasure is the Northfield home you've been dreaming of. Nestled in one of the city's most sought-after east side neighborhoods, this stunning 5-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers a wonderful combination of historic character and one-level living, if desired.

Step inside and be welcomed by exquisite original woodwork, stunning cross-cut Oak floors, leaded glass windows, and a grand staircase that speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. A gracious front porch sets the tone for the warmth you'll find throughout. You're just steps from Carleton College's campus and Central Park, and only blocks from vibrant downtown Northfield, the Carleton Arboretum, and the City swimming pool.

Lovingly cared for and refreshed, recent improvements bring the home's historic character into sharp focus. Freshly finished walls, ceilings and floors create a clean, bright backdrop that lets the period details shine. For instance, the second-story floors have been refinished and retrimmed to beautifully showcase their rare, seamless Douglas Fir, and the many kitchen and pantry cabinets have been painted inside and out.

Four bedrooms and a full bath occupy the upper level. The fifth bedroom on the main floor is a versatile addition, complete with a Murphy bed and walk-in closet — perfect as a guest room, home office, or whatever your lifestyle demands. A remodeled ¾ bath and main-floor laundry complete the picture for genuine one-level living.

The open, bright, and dry basement with its impressive ceiling height is a clean and blank canvas ready for your vision — whether that's additional living space, a hobby haven, or generous storage. Both the workshop and root cellar received new insulation and ceilings. Above, the attic with three sides of windows and soaring ceilings awaits the next homeowner's imagination. Both spaces offer exciting potential for expansion.

A newer high-efficiency condensing boiler, wood-burning fireplace, and double-door entry keep the home cozy through Minnesota winters. Come summer, a whole-house circulation fan draws cool evening air through the home — efficient, effective, and wonderfully old-school.

For added peace of mind, this home includes a one-year Home Warranty.

Character. Location. Value. Welcome home.

Architecture like this doesn't come along often. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath one-owner home sits privately on 5 wooded acres outside Cannon Falls, thoughtfully designed to honor the principles of organic architecture — where Prairie Creek runs just below, visible through the home's sweeping windows and steps from the back deck. This is the up-North feeling without the drive north. Every detail was chosen intentionally. Three-quarter-inch tongue-and-groove oak floors and ceilings, 5/8-inch cherry trim, and custom tile floors flow throughout the main level — all wood Wisconsin custom-milled, all built to last. Carpet only on the main level halls and bedrooms. No ductwork throughout. Built-in bookshelves. The kitchen features custom tile countertops, a 2020 range, and a newer Bosch dishwasher. The pantry exterior wall is intentionally left uninsulated to keep it naturally cool year-round. The home was designed with the seasons in mind: passive solar gain warms the interior in winter while extended eaves block summer sun. Four heat sources give you options — electric baseboard, a 2022 Daikin mini-split in the main room, a wood-burning fireplace (needs repair), and the primary workhorse: a brand-new Harman pellet stove. A double-door airlock entry keeps conditioned air where it belongs. The tankless water heater (top-of-the-line, 2017) and a 2025 washing machine round out the mechanical updates. New roofing on all buildings. Much of the exterior lap and box tongue-and-groove siding was replaced in 2025–26. The setting is as private as it gets — zoning with building restrictions prohibits further development; the shared access road serves this property and one existing neighbor. Power and telephone lines are buried. Two outbuildings and a shed. Circular driveway with asphalt in front of the house. No garage, but room to add one. Centrally located: 10 minutes to Cannon Falls, 20 to Northfield, 40 to the heart of St. Paul, and 45–50 to MSP. A rare home with real craft, real quiet, and a creek out the window.
