About this home
This gorgeous 1921 Craftsman in Saint Paul’s highly desirable Macalester-Groveland neighborhood features architect-designed additions, extensive remodeling, abundant windows, hardwood floors, and modern amenities throughout. The home offers 4+ bedrooms, natural oak built-ins, a gas fireplace with slate surround, and a bright sunroom with French doors. The beautifully remodeled kitchen includes custom cabinetry, granite countertops, three pull-out cutting boards, a large pantry, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking dual-fuel range, and a new microwave/air-fryer/convection oven, plus a staging area with organized pull-outs. The spacious owner’s suite has a gas fireplace and a large walk-in closet plumbed for laundry. Additional bedrooms sit on both the main and upper levels, and the large lower-level room with two egress windows—already plumbed for a kitchenette—offers flexible use as an office, extra bedrooms, or a potential mother-in-law suite. The home includes two full baths (upper with separate shower, jacuzzi, and skylight; main with original iron/enamel tub, and added shower) and a fully plumbed/framed ¾ bath in the basement ready for your finishes, including a potential steam shower. The fully fenced backyard features a new black steel fence, koi/goldfish pond, fieldstone patio, pergola with mature Concord grapes, and lush landscaping. Additional spaces include a TV room/office opening to a three-season porch with radiant heat. The renovated basement offers drain tile, sump pump, laundry room, wine cellar, and PEX tubing roughed-in slab for future radiant-heat if desired. All bedrooms, bathrooms, and lower family room have sound insulted walls and ceilings. Updated, insulated basement slab installed in 2009.
