Charming historic home overlooking Lake Como. Welcome to 1222 E Como Blvd--an enchanting blend of history, character, and natural beauty nestled in one of St. Paul's most beloved neighborhoods. This 4-bed, 1.25-bath home offers a rare opportunity to own one of the original farmhouses on the block, dating back to 1907. Perched on a beautifully landscaped lot directly across from Lake Como, this home enjoys picturesque views and easy access to the walking and biking paths that circle the lake. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on the three-season front porch or enjoying a sunset stroll, the peaceful energy of the lake is always within reach. Inside, the home exudes warmth and timeless charm. Original woodwork, hardwood floors, and thoughtfully preserved details give a nod to its rich past, while recent updates and meticulous maintenance ensure modern comfort. The spacious main floor includes a welcoming living room, a formal dining area perfect for entertaining, and a cozy family room for relaxing. The updated kitchen has plenty of counter and cabinet space, new appliances (2024), and room for an additional small dining table. Off the kitchen is another 3-season side porch, perfect for use as a mudroom. Upstairs you'll find four comfortable bedrooms with plenty of closet space. The full bathroom was remodeled in 2021 and features classic fixtures and a clean, bright aesthetic. The outdoor space is a true highlight. The lush gardens have been lovingly curated to provide continuous blooms from spring through fall, creating a vibrant and every-changing backdrop. The one car over-sized garage was replaced in 2015 and provides additional storage. This is more than just a house--it's a piece of Como Park history, thoughtfully cared for and ready to welcome its next stewards. Come experience the serenity, community, and timeless charm of 1222 E Como Blvd. Your new chapter begins here.
