Your chance to own a true architectural gem, this avant-garde Southwest Minneapolis house was just listed for $1,500,000.
- Architect Benjamin Gingold's own home was built in the '50s but packs a futuristic punch. It's located at 4745 Girard Ave. S. near Lake Harriet.
Why we love it: That fireplace perched atop a travertine platform in the living room is a masterpiece, not to mention the four-story turret staircase.
Layout: The 4,300-square-foot house has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, rich mahogany accents, and soaring windows.
Interior features: The kitchen is updated, but the real standout is the primary bathroom retreat with mosaic tile and a circular shower.
- The intrigue: A tiny door near the bathtub opens to the hallway and another artistic fireplace.
Take a look around:
