Minnesota, Washington County, Stillwater, USA

One of Stillwater's most admired homes and now available for the first time in 32 years, this 1914 Prairie School-style residence offers exceptional craftsmanship, rich woodwork, and remarkable architectural detail. Designed by Arthur S. Clausen of Minneapolis, whose work was influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright, this rare and timeless home is a treasure. Hallmark Prairie School features abound: clean, simple lines; varied roof levels; leaded glass windows and doors; and exquisite quarter-sawn oak woodwork. Period lighting, including many wall sconces, adds to the charm. Unique custom pocket windows slide entirely into the walls, leaving only the screens for an open-air feel. The main floor includes a stunning south-facing sunroom with three walls of windows and French doors opening to the front porch. In total, there are 5 screened and open-air porches to extend living outdoors and enjoy the seasons. The spacious living room is anchored by an incredible fireplace with a substantial Craftsman-style 8' cement mantle and built in bookcases, plus a cozy bay window with built-in seating. This space flows seamlessly into the large dining room with beautiful built-in hutch with original leaded glass doors. The period kitchen is well-appointed with a gas cooktop, separate wall oven, quartz countertops and walk-in pantry with original cabinetry. Upstairs, you'll find three generous bedrooms plus a fourth currently used as an office, all with maple hardwood floors and original woodwork. The 2nd floor features a south facing sunroom plus a west facing screened porch. There is walk-up attic offering potential for additional living space and storage. Set elegantly above street level on a 0.3-acre corner lot, the home enjoys large front and side yards, plus a flat backyard with a firepit area, raspberry bushes, and three Harrelson apple trees ready to share their bounty. The newer oversized 27x32 garage, with tall doors, received the Rivertown Restoration Award for remodeling, the only time this honor has been given to an outbuilding-thanks to its thoughtful design that complements the home's architecture. Come see this warm, welcoming and distinctive Prairie-style Craftsman, ideally located in a desirable South Hill neighborhood, just blocks from everything you love about downtown Stillwater.
