Nestled in the "Shadow Falls" neighborhood of Merriam Park, named after the waterfall just blocks from the home, this classic St. Paul home sits on a prime corner lot just blocks from the University of St. Thomas and the scenic Mississippi River gorge. Known for its mature trees, timeless homes, and quiet, established feel, this neighborhood offers excellent access to both downtowns, the University of Minnesota, and abundant mass transit options. Step through the arched front doorway to discover refinished hardwood floors and woodwork, beamed ceilings, cased openings, custom built-ins, and French windows that create an elegant, light-filled atmosphere. The stunning living room is centered around a classic brick wood-burning fireplace, and nearby, an elegant formal dining room features a restored built-in buffet and panoramic windows that fill the space with natural light. The updated kitchen features solid wood cabinetry and plenty of prep space, with easy access to the side entry. The main floor includes two bedrooms and a full bath, including a spacious primary with an adjoining sitting room or nursery separated by elegant French doors. A built-in hallway linen cabinet and laundry chute add vintage charm and everyday convenience. Upstairs you’ll find two additional bedrooms and a ¾ bath, perfect for guests or work-from-home flexibility. The basement offers exceptional function with a dedicated laundry area, workshop, and a wine cellar with custom built-in shelving. Enjoy the outdoors on the brick front terrace that overlooks peaceful, landscaped surroundings. A grapevine hedge lines the rear lot, and wrought iron fencing with a gated entry enhances curb appeal and privacy. This well-cared-for home offers classic warmth, updated comfort, and an unbeatable location—ready to welcome you home!
