A handsome library with custom built-ins and a grand parlor with floor-to-ceiling windows, enameled millwork, multiple seating areas, and a striking wood-burning fireplace create exceptional spaces for everyday living and entertaining.
The formal dining room showcases a stunning built-in buffet, designer wallpaper, and a statement chandelier. The thoughtfully designed eat-in kitchen features glass-front cabinetry, pass-through windows, a six-burner Dacor range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, custom cabinetry, abundant storage, and a dedicated workspace. The rear entry includes a European marble powder room, heated floors, a spacious mudroom, and laundry.
The second level offers five generous bedrooms, including one with a wood-burning fireplace, along with two full baths, a three-quarter bath, and a second laundry. The third level features additional bedrooms, a family room, fitness space, and a skylit studio ideal for artists, musicians, or a home office. The unfinished lower level offers exceptional ceiling height and endless potential for future expansion.
A spacious patio is perfect for outdoor entertaining, while the shared driveway leads to a rare three-car garage. Ideally located within walking distance of Grand Avenue's boutiques, restaurants, and cafés, as well as historic Summit Avenue. This remarkable home offers an extraordinary blend of architectural significance and modern comforts in one of Saint Paul's most coveted locations.
Recent updates include exterior stucco repair and repainting of the home and garage, a high velocity AC for the 2nd and 3rd levels and a new water heater system for the home.
