Urban Beach and Ski Retreat

This spacious 3 bedroom mid century house is in a scenic neighborhood of Golden Valley, right across from Wirth Park. 6 min to downtown and uptown, close to 3 lakes, right on the city's biking and skiing trail. Ski from the house to a lodge and hop into a mobile sauna! Across the street is Mpls's largest park system and a swimming beach. A large private back yard, a fireplace and proximity to both urban life and nature makes this perfect for families, friends, a vacation or a business trip.

The space
This spacious contemporary/mid century modern home is centrally located 2.5 miles from The North Loop, Uptown and West End shopping/dining. It is right off the Highway 55, and close to the 100 highway and the 394. Located in the Golden Valley neighborhood, it is surrounded by the Minneapolis Parks System and within a walking distance to the closest beach (and the city bike station), bike trails, running paths, ski trails, golf courses, wild flower and bird nature gardens. Step out of the house onto the bike trail and in 15 minutes enjoy bars, restaurants, coffee shops and nightlife.
This accommodation is the entire home with 3 bedrooms. Main level has one bedroom, a living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a dining room, a music room with a Yamaha piano, office space with a view, and a bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub on the main level (no shower). The shower (complete with jets) is located on the lower level. 2 teen bedrooms and a rec room with a TV are on the lower level as well. Guests will have off-street parking in the driveway, a large private backyard with 2 decks, a grill and laundry in the basement.
The kitchen is outfitted with an espresso machine for a freshly ground cup of coffee in the morning. En
