Sun-filled home on a quiet, tree-lined Cottage Grove street, with a fenced backyard, deck, and covered patio. Welcome to 7313 97th Street South, a well-kept home with over 2000 finished square feet. The home faces north, so the backyard and main living spaces sit on the sunny south side and fill with natural light. The entry foyer has slate-style tile and a coat closet. A few steps up, vaulted ceilings carry through the main level. The living room features neutral carpet, oak railings, and a large picture window framing the mature trees out front. It opens to a bright dining area with luxury vinyl plank flooring and a sliding door to the deck. The kitchen offers generous storage and workspace. It has abundant oak cabinetry including floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinets, a full suite of stainless steel appliances, and a window over the double sink. A wraparound peninsula adds room to cook, serve, and gather. On the upper level are two bedrooms, each with a walk-in closet, and an updated full bath with a modern vanity, brushed nickel fixtures, and a tiled tub/shower surround. The walkout lower level adds significant living space. The large family room has oversized windows and a sliding door to the patio, with room for a media area, game room, home gym, or hobby space. Two more bedrooms and a ¾ bath with a tiled walk-in shower make this level ideal for guests, a home office, or extra living space. A laundry room with a utility sink and additional storage completes the level. Outside, the deck overlooks a fully fenced backyard, and the covered paver patio beneath it offers shade on summer afternoons. The yard features mature trees including a towering blue spruce, raised garden beds, a fire pit area, and a storage shed. A 2-car attached garage completes the package. Close to Cottage Grove’s shopping, everyday amenities, and walking trails, as well as Pine Glen Park with ball fields, a playground, and a basketball court. Settle in before the holidays, with room for everyone inside and a fire pit out back for cool fall nights.
