Property Description
Your chance to own a piece of Prospect Park history, known for The Witches Hat Water Tower and Tower Hill Park at the highest natural land area in MPLS. Imagine the streetcar line & gas streetlights when the neighborhood started in 1865! Popular location by the U of M, walkable to Surly, immersed with interesting designs by famous architects, such as Ralph Rapson of Guthrie fame. This home has its own history: Phillip Thompson was the Dept. of Art Chair at Augsburg College from 1959-1992, known as a painter, printmaker, sculptor and more. His personal handiwork is built in and all around the house. If you are looking for a piece of history that you can put your own mark on, this is it. There’s open attics above bedrooms, flat porch off upper bedroom, John Lennon glass window, garage turned “Weaver’s Shed” with a fireplace old car hood mantle and so much more. If you are looking for a cookie cutter home, you’ll have to keep looking. If you want to be inspired, come take a look!
