Welcome to 215 Elm Street, Northfield Northfield, MN is located 40 miles south of downtown Minneapolis via Interstate 35W. It's close enough to the metropolitan area to provide easy access-but far enough to deliver a genuine sense of small town. Two prestigious colleges bracket Northfield, with St.Olaf College to the west and Carleton College to the east. 215 Elm is located 1/2 block from the Carleton College campus on arguably the most desirable block in Northfield's historic east side. The home was constructed in 1873 by John North, a local attorney who some credit with founding Northfield. Just around the corner is Carleton's renowned Cowling Arboretum-an 880 acre nature reserve with walking paths through forests and natural prairies. The home was acquired in 2006 by its current owners. Planning for a major exterior renovation began immediately and it was completed in 2008. The property was transformed with a new wrap-around front porch, new Hardie siding, new custom Marvin Windows, and detailing consistent with the neighborhood. A year later new landscaping was installed-including several new (now mature) birch trees. During renovation the adjoining garage was enhanced with a matching paned window above the double door-and other enhancements including a side entry via the original paneled door repurposed from the house. Upstairs includes a large bedroom with walk-in closet at the head of the stairs. A short hallway leads to two other bedrooms (three in all). An outdated bathroom with separate tub and shower is at the end of the hall. Unlike the rest of this fabulous property, it needs work-which is reflected in a surprisingly buyer friendly price. Now for the tour.
