For Sale - Active
1 Units

A rare opportunity to own a turn-of-the-century gem in one of St. Paul's most coveted neighborhoods, just two blocks from Snelling Avenue and the grandeur of Summit Avenue. Located on a beautiful corner lot with an extensively landscaped yard, this historic home blends classic charm with modern updates. Step inside to be greeted by stunning original woodwork, elegant millwork, and timeless craftsmanship throughout. The newly remodeled kitchen is GORGEOUS—featuring a window seat, ceiling height white cabinetry, a large center island with seating, stainless steel appliances including a double oven range, granite countertops, tile backsplash, and a full wall of custom pantry storage. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, enhanced by French doors leading to the enclosed back porch—perfect for entertaining or enjoying morning coffee with garden views. This home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, with three bedrooms conveniently located on one level. The upper level bathroom is a historic beauty, complete with a classic clawfoot tub, separate shower, and a private balcony overlooking the backyard with flowering trees. The finished attic has been transformed into a luxurious primary suite with a sitting area, large walk-in closet, and ensuite 3/4 bath. A charming half bath on the main floor includes an exposed brick chimney for a touch of unique character. Another notable feature to love is the double laundry—stackable units upstairs and additional laundry in the basement. Radiant hot water heat and classic radiators preserve the home's vintage feel while offering comfortable warmth. The detached 2-car garage is easily accessible and includes a huge attic storage space. This one-of-a-kind residence captures the best of old-world elegance and modern updates—all in a premier St. Paul location. Don't miss the chance to make this exquisite home yours!
