215 Elm Street, Northfield, MN

About 215 Elm Street

Northfield, MN is located 40 miles south of downtown Minneapolis via Interstate 35W. It's close enough to the metropolitan area to provide easy access-but far enough to deliver a genuine sense of small town. Two prestigious colleges bracket Northfield, with St.Olaf College to the west and Carleton College to the east. 215 Elm is located 1/2 block from the Carleton College campus on arguably the most desirable block in Northfield's historic east side. The home was constructed in 1873 by John North, a local attorney who some credit with founding Northfield. Just around the corner is Carleton's renowned Cowling Arboretum-an 880 acre nature reserve with walking paths through forests and natural prairies. The home was acquired in 2006 by its current owners. The property was transformed with a new wrap-around front porch, new Hardie siding, new custom Marvin Windows, and detailing consistent with the neighborhood.
