Property Description

Lovers of St. Paul's rich history, unite! This well-maintained, stately Craftsman home is ready for its proud new owners. Prepare to be wowed by the double lot (a true must-see), with well-manicured landscaping and beautiful established flora, as well as the interior features and character of the home. The generously sized, south-facing front porch has provided a warm and inviting hangout space for this home's owners for over a century, and leads you into a beautiful foyer entry area, flanked by parlor and living rooms. The original millwork, cut and stained glass, and hardwood features inside are truly world class. The original owners and builders of this home invested heavily in upgrade options, including hand carvings, a massive and functional buffet, curved and geometric bay areas with matching storage and radiators, a butler's pantry, and so much more. Great ceiling height, grand room sizes, hardwood floors, and many original light fixtures create an ambience that needs to be felt in person to be fully appreciated. Modern conveniences like a newer roof, outdoor patio spaces, foam insulated massive walk-up attic (ready for your imagination), central air, newer oversized garage, Marvin windows, and modern plumbing combine the best of both worlds. Huge storage and workshop opportunities in the basement. Do not miss your chance to put your finishing touches on this rare opportunity in the heart of one of St. Paul's most historic neighborhoods!
