Welcome to 1801 Wellesley Avenue, a handsome representation of timeless Prairie and Craftsman influences, beautifully preserved yet thoughtfully updated for modern living. Rich in original character, this exceptional home showcases quarter-sawn oak millwork, a welcoming front-corner staircase, wide cased openings, a stunning built-in dining buffet with leaded-glass cabinetry, and an inviting fireplace flanked by original built-in bookcases. Spacious, light-filled living and dining rooms reflect the craftsmanship and enduring appeal that define St. Paul’s finest early 20th-century homes.
The fully remodeled kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring custom cherry cabinetry, a premium dual-fuel range, and generous workspace. Sunrooms at the front and rear of the home, along with skylights in the well executed and cohesive addition, fill the interior with natural light throughout the day.
Designed for gathering, the home offers expansive indoor living spaces that flow seamlessly to the large deck, creating wonderful opportunities for entertaining inside and out. Established perennial gardens provide a picturesque setting.
With a bathroom on every level, thoughtfully updated amenities and mechanicals (boiler and water heater new in 2024, gas fireplace), and remarkable architectural integrity throughout, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Macalester-Groveland’s beautifully preserved homes. Come and see where quality living, timeless craftsmanship and modern comfort come together.
