BACK ON THE MARKET! Excellent opportunity just blocks from Lake Como! This beautifully updated home is ready for its next prideful owners. The brand-new roof and siding will provide peace of mind for years to come! Nestled in the perfect location along a quiet stretch of Simon Avenue, this property allows easy access to all the Como Park amenities while being very close to both downtown St Paul and Minneapolis. Enjoy a refreshed spacious main level, with an open layout set to entertain family and friends. The bright inviting kitchen was remodeled in 2018 with new appliances, plumbing, duct work, and bamboo engineered flooring throughout.
