Welcome to this charming and well-maintained 3-bedroom home in a prime Saint Paul location—minutes from Como Park, Zoo, and Conservatory with tons of trails to enjoy, and with quick access to both downtowns. Built in 1955, this home blends classic mid-century construction with smart layout upgrades and plenty of storage.
Inside, you’ll find an open-concept main level that’s rare for homes of this era, with the living room, dining area, and kitchen flowing seamlessly together—perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features painted cabinetry, lots of storage, and is filled with natural light.
All three bedrooms are located on the main level, along with a full bathroom that boasts tile flooring and a tiled tub surround. Hardwood floors (some under carpet) add warmth and character throughout. Step out to the spacious screened porch to enjoy peaceful indoor-outdoor living in a backyard designed for relaxation, play, and pets.
The lower level offers both function and flexibility: a finished family room and dedicated storage areas, including a cedar-lined off-season closet and an unfinished workshop or hobby space ready to customize. A deep fenced backyard and additional storage shed round out the outdoor amenities.
Updated windows, furnace and A/C, and interior paint add even more value.
