57 Luverne Avenue

One of Tangletown's most architecturally distinctive homes - and arguably one of the most distinctive in all of Minneapolis! This rare Spanish Colonial-Revival sits perched above Minnehaha Creek, bringing the design language of the Texas Mission churches of San Antonio to one of the city's most beloved neighborhoods. Stucco walls, tile roofing, arched detailing, and Romanesque windows define the exterior. The sunken living room announces itself immediately: timber-beamed ceilings, rich natural woodwork, and hardwood floors set against arched windows that flood the space with light. Original light fixtures and period details throughout reinforce what this home is, an architectural vision that simply cannot be replicated at any price point today.

The floor plan is as functional as it is striking. Three bedrooms share the same level, anchored by a primary suite with his and her closets. The finished basement with fresh carpet adds flexible living space. Out back, a large flat yard with a patio and water feature creates a private retreat - steps from the Minnehaha Creek trail. Attached two-car garage, backyard shed, and MAC windows complete a home that has been thoughtfully maintained without sacrificing an ounce of its original character.
