Description for 8549 Russell Avenue S, Bloomington, MN, 55431
Tucked into a quiet pocket of West Bloomington, this 4-bedroom home at 8549 Russell is the kind of place that instantly feels comfortable and familiar. It’s been well cared for over the years, and it shows in all the right ways. Upstairs, natural light fills the living spaces, and there’s hardwood flooring waiting beneath the carpet in the living room and at least 2 of the bedrooms—ready to be revealed if that’s your style. The finished lower level adds flexible space for movie nights, a home office, playroom, or hosting guests. Step outside and you’ll find a private backyard that feels like your own retreat. There’s room to garden, let kids or pets play, or host summer dinners on the patio—whether that’s a quiet morning coffee or a gathering with friends. The insulated 26’ x 24’ garage offers plenty of space for vehicles, hobbies, and storage, with the option to reinstall a heater for year-round comfort. The big updates are already done, too—a brand-new roof was installed in November 2025, and new gutters are coming soon, giving you peace of mind for years to come. All of this in a peaceful neighborhood, yet just minutes from shopping, dining, parks, and everyday conveniences. This is a home that’s easy to settle into and even easier to love.
