Property Description

Welcome to 7866 Eastwood Road, a classic 1941 Cape Cod set on a rare 0.43-acre lot in the heart of Mounds View, MN. With five bedrooms, updated baths, and nearly a decade of documented improvements, this is the kind of move-in-ready character home that buyers searching the Twin Cities metro rarely find. The major updates are already done, so you can settle in with confidence. The roof, front door, and back door were all replaced in 2020. Central air conditioning was installed in 2018, along with a new furnace blower, and the washer & dryer. Gutters were installed in 2016, the front retaining wall was rebuilt in 2023, and a new sidewalk and breezeway door followed in 2024. Inside, the list continues: brand-new kitchen and dining room flooring in 2025; a new dishwasher in 2022; an updated range, sink, and water softener in 2017. The main bath was gutted and fully remodeled in 2019 with an updated vanity and walk-in tile shower. In 2020, the rear entry was reimagined as a pantry off the kitchen, a smart storage upgrade every cook will appreciate. Upstairs, two bedrooms and the hallway were resheetrocked and the hardwood floors refinished in 2017. The upper half bath received a new vanity and toilet. The layout offers flexibility that is hard to find: two bedrooms on the main level, including an easy primary, plus three more bedrooms upstairs with charming dormers.. Refinished hardwood floors, crown molding, and arched doorways carry warm 1940s character throughout. A separate formal dining room, an enclosed breezeway porch connecting the garage, and a concrete patio overlooking the backyard round out the living spaces. The lower level adds laundry, abundant built-in storage, and real potential for a future rec room, gym, or workshop, a true value-add opportunity for buyers looking to build equity in the Minneapolis-St. Paul's housing market.
