About This Home
7556 Laverne Avenue S sits on one of Jason's favorite streets in Cottage Grove, a quiet block with a corn field at one end and a playground and ice rink at the other, shaded by mature trees that give the whole area an almost storybook feel. By the time of this 2020 transaction, nearly everything in the home had been updated: a gas fireplace with built-in bookcases, an updated kitchen, and an ensuite primary bedroom.
The home features an open floor plan with three bedrooms on one level, plus a fourth in the lower level, and an insulated garage with a drop-down ladder for additional attic storage. A spacious patio and backyard bonfire pit rounded out the outdoor space.
This is a historical transaction record. The pricing, condition, and market circumstances at the time of this 2020 sale do not necessarily represent the property's current value, condition, or today's Cottage Grove market.

A Four Level Split in Old Cottage Grove
This four level split sits on roughly a third of an acre in the East Side subdivision, the pocket longtime residents still call Old Cottage Grove. The layout puts three bedrooms on one level with a fourth in the lower level, and the main living space centers on a gas fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases.
By 2020 the kitchen had been updated and the primary bedroom had its own bath. Outside, the patio and backyard fire pit made the most of a lot that is larger than most in the neighborhood.

Experience in the East Side and Cottage Grove
The East Side, sometimes called Old Cottage Grove by longtime residents, is one of the city's more distinctive pockets. Having handled three separate transactions at this one address gives Jason a depth of familiarity with this particular street that is unusual even within his broader Cottage Grove record of representing both buyers and sellers.
