For a few years right around 2020, all throughout the Twin Cities, the sighs of the home-shopping masses were audible as they walked into yet another ho-hum flip. The floors were vinyl, the vibes were bleak, and the color palette had all the charm of a cold drizzle. At 2643 Zarthan Avenue S, you won't find your typical flip: this home is a proud, comprehensive renovation ushering in warmth, true quality, and peak livability. Enter through the front door and hang your coat in the deep-blue entryway nook. Kick off your shoes and traverse engineered white oak wood floors. The centerpiece of the home is, hands down, the kitchen with adjacent eat-in dining, featuring custom white oak cabinets, quartz countertops, a textured backsplash, and all-new stainless appliances. The bathrooms on both levels have been overhauled with perfectly installed floor tiles and new vanities. On the lower level, a quartz dry bar offers easy entertaining with concealed plumbing for a potential future wet bar conversion. Even the laundry and storage rooms have been upgraded with ultra-durable epoxy floors that will weather decades of use. But even the best craftsmanship is only as good as its location--and this twin home is wonderfully located just up the street from Birchwood Park, a half-mile west of Dakota Dog Park, and fewer than 10 minutes from The Shops at West End, including local staples like Punch Bowl Social, Yard House, The Home Depot, Costco, Hope Breakfast Bar, and countless other beloved establishments you'll find yourself frequenting. With finishes that must be seen to be believed, you won't find better bang for your buck in all of Saint Louis Park.
