Located in the heart of Merriam Park, this classic brick two-story home beautifully blends timeless charm with modern convenience. A welcoming front porch sets the tone, while inside you’ll find rich natural woodwork and gleaming hardwood floors throughout the main level. The home has been thoughtfully redesigned to blend the original 1888 charm with today's modern amenities. The floor plan offers exceptional living and entertaining spaces, including a formal living room, adjoining family room, formal dining room, and an updated, eat-in kitchen featuring a center island and separate walk-in pantry. A convenient mudroom off the back of the home adds everyday functionality, while an adorable tucked-away powder room beneath the stairs provides the perfect main-floor guest bath. You will love the convenience of both front and back stairs! The second level offers three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with dual sinks and a step-in shower. Two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom, including one that spans the entire front of the second floor of the home with beautiful south-facing windows that fill the space with natural light. You’ll also appreciate the convenience of full-size front-loading laundry on this level. The versatile third floor offers incredible flexibility, serving beautifully as a family room, guest retreat, or second primary suite, complete with a large walk-in closet and full bathroom. The clean, dry unfinished basement provides abundant storage, an additional three-quarter bathroom, and a second laundry area. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard and an oversized insulated two-car garage with unfinished bonus space above, offering endless potential for future expansion, studio space, or additional storage. This is a rare opportunity to own a character-filled home in one of Saint Paul’s most beloved neighborhoods.
