A rare opportunity to own a true St. Paul classic in the heart of Mac-Groveland. Built in 1889 and meticulously maintained by the owners, this remarkable home blends timeless architectural character with all the modern conveniences. Just blocks from Mississippi River Boulevard and within easy walking distance of neighborhood coffee shops, restaurants, and local favorites, the location is every bit as appealing as the home itself. Inside, natural light pours through gorgeous historic windows, highlighting soaring ceilings, original woodwork, generous room sizes, and the kind of craftsmanship rarely found today. Wide stairways, large foyers and landings, and a substantial double-thick brick exterior speak to the home's rich history and enduring quality. With more than 4,200 finished square feet across four levels, the home offers exceptional flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. Multiple gathering spaces provide room to spread out, while the beautifully updated kitchen is truly amazing with newer high-end appliances, abundant workspace, and a walk-in pantry. Enjoy morning coffee in the large sunroom, summer evenings on the screened three-season porch, and outdoor living in the fully fenced backyard. Thoughtful updates ensure comfort and peace of mind, including newer air conditioning and boiler systems, bathrooms on all four levels, solar panels, and ample off-street parking with a newer two-car garage and adjacent parking pad. Rich in character, exceptionally cared for, and truly move-in ready, this is a home that offers the best of both worlds: historic elegance and modern livability in one of St. Paul's most desirable neighborhoods.
