Welcome to 458 Holly Avenue, a striking Victorian built in 1888, set on one of the most beautiful blocks in Saint Paul’s historic Cathedral Hill neighborhood. From the moment you step inside, you’ll feel the balance: original character in all the right places—wide archways, tall sun-filled windows, rich natural woodwork, and multiple fireplaces—paired with updates that make daily life seamless. At the heart of the home is a stunning designer kitchen, perfectly scaled for both everyday living and entertaining. It opens effortlessly to a comfortable family room—creating the kind of connected, functional space buyers are looking for—while still honoring the home’s historic charm. A rare and highly practical main level layout also includes a mudroom, laundry, office, and ¾ bath. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two full bathrooms on one level offer flexibility and convenience, anchored by a romantic primary suite featuring distinctive windows, beautiful woodwork, its own gas fireplace, and generous closet space. The bathrooms have been tastefully updated to complement the home’s character while delivering modern comfort. All of this, just steps from the charm and vibrancy of Selby and Grand Avenue—restaurants, shops, cafes, and neighborhood favorites—making this not just a beautiful home, but an exceptional lifestyle opportunity.
