219 Chicago Avenue N, Wayzata, MN 55391

Opportunities like this are increasingly rare in downtown Wayzata — a quiet, private dead-end street, an unusually large 54x165 lot & a location that puts Lake Minnetonka, restaurants, shops, coffee, parks & everything downtown Wayzata has to offer just outside your door. Add easy highway access & eligibility for Wayzata's resident boat slip lottery, and this is a home that offers an exceptional combination of location, lifestyle & long-term potential. Inside, the flexible 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout offers a variety of ways to live, work & entertain, with comfortable spaces across multiple levels that can easily adapt as needs change. A main-level bedroom with convenient access to a bath featuring a steam shower provides added versatility, while additional bedrooms, living spaces & abundant storage create plenty of room to spread out. Unique architectural details give the home character rarely found in newer construction, including original posts sourced from a European library & an original mantel from a French train station. The kitchen features a Viking refrigerator, Electrolux gas range & new GE dishwasher, while nearly every major system has already been replaced — including a new roof with copper dormers, 2 new furnaces, 2 new A/C units, water heater, water softener, irrigation system & reverse osmosis system by Water Doctors. The stucco has also been tested & cleared, with a full report available. Outside is where this property becomes especially difficult to replicate downtown. The oversized backyard has been completely reimagined with a newly leveled lawn, extensive landscaping & brand-new patio, creating an incredible setting for outdoor living, entertaining or simply enjoying your own private space. The depth of the lot also provides exciting future flexibility, with room to explore expanding the kitchen & living areas and adding additional second-level space if desired. With 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, a 2-car garage, abundant basement storage & significant recent investment already completed, this is a rare opportunity to own a home with character, flexibility & an exceptional yard in one of Wayzata's most desirable walkable locations.
