Timeless 1921 Craftsman brimming with character, warmth, and beautifully preserved original detail throughout. From the moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the rich unpainted woodwork, original window and door hardware, cove molding, classic built-ins, hardwood flooring, painted radiators, and stunning built-in buffet that give this home its unmistakable charm. The sun-drenched front three-season porch welcomes you with an iconic checkerboard floor and the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day.
The thoughtfully updated kitchen blends modern function with historic character, featuring a real tin ceiling, custom inset cabinetry, tile backsplash, gas range, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher.
The main level offers exceptional functionality with an intricate full bath, spacious guest bedroom, and an additional fourth bedroom perfectly suited for today’s work-from-home lifestyle, creative studio, or flex space. Upstairs showcases newly installed hardwood flooring along with a spacious primary suite retreat, second bedroom, dedicated office nook, and updated 3/4 bath.
Step outside into a private backyard oasis complete with mature perennial gardens, raised vegetable beds, fully fenced yard, inviting patio space, and an incredible wood-burning pizza oven that feels straight out of a magazine. Newer two-car garage off the alley plus an additional parking pad out front providing a rare convenience and extra parking flexibility.
Located just blocks from Hamline Elementary School, this home offers the perfect blend of historic craftsmanship, thoughtful updates, and unforgettable outdoor living in one of Saint Paul’s most charming neighborhoods.
