Positioned on an iconic red brick road in the heart of Ramsey Hill, this incredible home offers exceptional investment potential paired with timeless architectural appeal. Thoughtfully preserved and enhanced, the property showcases well-ornamented casement windows, scalloped trim, stately interior and exterior colonnades, old-growth inlaid wood floors, six distinct fireplaces, and French doors leading to a screened porch.
The layout provides outstanding flexibility for income generation, with ease of use for a bed-and-breakfast supported by tastefully updated en-suite bathrooms. An attached yet privately accessed dwelling offers additional revenue potential creating multiple streams of income for an owner-occupant or investor. A three-car garage and ample off-street parking further enhance operational convenience—an uncommon asset in this location.
Set in a premier, highly walkable neighborhood near Grand Avenue’s dining, shopping, and services, as well as the parks and scenic paths of Summit Avenue, this property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historically significant asset with strong income versatility in one of Saint Paul’s most sought-after areas.
