Welcome to the John & Maria Broom House – Constructed in 1891 by renowned Minneapolis builder T.P. Healy. This picturesque Queen Anne, located in the middle of the Healy Block Historic District, boasts many features. T.P. Healy is known for including curved windows, an open front porch with intricate millwork, stained glass windows and a gabled roof with a tower cap without a tower! Walk through the large double oak front door into a spacious entryway filled with natural millwork, inlaid wood floors and large pocket doors. The floor plan is classically Victorian, featuring spacious rooms and high coved ceilings. You will immediately notice the whimsical woodwork and detailed fretwork which stunningly frame the living room and sitting room. The dining room showcases stunningly ebonized wainscoting, trimwork and built-ins. Just off the dining room you will find a lovingly tiled, southeast-facing sunroom with intricately framed stained glass windows that bring in lots of morning light. The kitchen has been lovingly refreshed with newer appliances, a butcher block center island and open shelving. All 5 bedrooms are located on the upper level. The large owners’ suite, complete with a dressing room and large bay windows, sits prominently at the front of the house and features much of the same detailed millwork consistent with the rest of the home. The large bathroom retains much of its charm and character, featuring detailed tilework and a clawfoot tub. The large walk-up attic is unfinished and provides abundant storage. This lovely home is ready for its next stewards who will carry on the tradition of restoration!
