Some houses have a story, a history, a sense that there is something special about a property. This is one of those special places. Poised perfectly on the hill rising about the historic town of Faribault, is this bungalow. Built in 1930 for the local movie theater owner, it has been restored, preserved and rescued from years of abuse. It is now standing as a testament to its architectural glory and celebrates the history of the community. It’s the charm of its craftsman style, the attention to detail, the quality craftsmanship of the period and the original details still in place that make it so special. Just a block from Downtown and within walking distance of the central business district. Beautiful lawn and landscape give way to bright open spaces, wood floors, custom crafted woodwork, leaded glass window and doors, and livable spaces that feel almost modern. Spend time on the front porch, enjoy the large living room and office space. Admire the stunning dining room and circular floor plan. Sneak into the rear sleeping porch for a nap, but don’t miss the upper level, with art decco inspired built in cabinets, the checked floor and custom arched ceiling – it could be a very cool family room. Enjoy this opportunity as a primary residence, share it with others as an Airbnb but treasure it as a piece of well crafted history.
