This 1884 built home is masterfully crafted and elegantly appointed. Step inside and be transformed into a simpler time and place. Every entrance has an enclosed porch which serves to keep the home well insulated from the cold or heat. And so much of the home is original or restored to original quality. Enjoy many interesting features like the gas powered drying rack in the basement that hides into the wall! The home is situated high on a hill overlooking the Scenic Minnesota River Valley.
New Ulm is an historic and charming town nestled along the Scenic Minnesota River Valley and is famous for its authentic German heritage as well as festivals, monuments, attractions, shopping and cultural events. It is a popular tourist destination for residents of Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester and more.
This is a turnkey business that includes a majority of the furnishings, client list, website, and the current owners will even train the new owners the first few weeks of ownership. All this for just $424,900. The Bed and Breakfast attracts vacationers worldwide across the country and of course from the Twin Cities and throughout Minnesota that are looking for a break from their busy lives. Local businesses rent rooms on a regular basis. Many of the furnishings are from the 2nd owners of the residence and date back to the early 1900’s. The property taxes are based on homestead and Bed and Breakfast business combined. The county will easily change it to a single family residence for the new buyer if preferred.
This exquisite home has a German flair and will astound you as you walk into the front porch with original Terrazzo floor, then step inside to the 15x13 Welcome Room with gorgeous original quarter sawn oak floors and woodwork throughout the house including black walnut, fir, oak, butternut, mahogany, cherry and gumwood. The 10 foot ceilings lend to the open and spacious feel. Off the Welcome room is the bright 24x11 Sun Porch with two sets of 9 foot French doors, each with beveled glass and a fireplace for chilly nights. The second set of French doors leads to the formal Living Room, 21x14, with crown molding, cozy wood burning fireplace with original ceramic flu and a marble front and beautiful built-in glass front bookcases. The dining room, 18x12, will accommodate a wealth of guests. Enjoy the warmth of pecan wainscoting, beamed ceilings, and continuous oak flooring. The office, 14x9, is situated between the living room and kitchen and is bedecked with a multitude of glass front bookcases. The kitchen is such a warm and inviting place with a wall of original cabinetry, all the modern appliances, dinette, butler pantry and access to the mud room and laundry on this main level. Take the back staircase to the 2nd floor maid’s quarters.
The original maid’s quarters included two bedrooms that have been transformed into a suite that includes a guest bedroom with bath plus a Jacuzzi room with a fairy tale mural. Imagine candles burning, a glass of wine and relaxing splendor in your own Jacuzzi. The 2nd floor is complete with five bedrooms (or guest rooms), all with private baths and four have electric fireplaces to keep guests warm on cold winter nights. All together, the home boasts six bedrooms, three full baths, including two whirlpool tubs, three ¾ baths and a ½ bath. There are six electric and two wood burning fireplaces throughout the home.
The third floor encompasses the 20x21 master suite, including an 11 x 11 sitting room alcove, 21x13 bonus room and full bath with original tub and separate shower with full body spray. There is also a small dressing room and cedar closet that would work beautifully as a nursery.
The full basement has plaster walls, clay block foundation, cement and wood flooring. The 29x15 family room is glorious with its large open wood burning fireplace with brick front, hardwood floor, daylight windows trimmed in wood, and an 11x9 guest bedroom plus a ½ bath. There is an abundance of storage space and a convenient workshop. All in excellent condition.
Step outside to the carriage house with 3 garage stalls that open to the back as well (originally for the horses and carriages), a heated workshop and upstairs can be transformed back into livable quarters with 3 separate rooms. What a terrific office or studio this would make. The driveway is newly poured concrete. The home sits on a double city lot, 100 x 165. The well established landscape was designed professionally. The exterior is mostly brick and stucco with cedar. The exterior wood has been painted and the windows and storm windows and screens have been stripped, painted and re-glazed.
With so much to list, this Exquisite Home must be seen to appreciate. The loving care over the life of this home is quite evident. See it today and become the 5th owners of this turn of the century masterpiece.
(Partial homestead status: $114,700 taxed as a Bed and Breakfast business at 1.25%;
$183,900 for residential homestead.)
