Welcome to this inviting two-story in Saint Paul’s sought-after Merriam Park neighborhood, where timeless charm meets thoughtful updates. A welcoming front porch opens into a bright entryway with a second door leading into the main living spaces—a classic feature that sets the tone for this character-filled home. Inside, the living room highlights a gas fireplace framed by built-ins and arched detail, and flows into a formal dining room. The eat-in kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, stainless appliances, a breakfast bar peninsula, pantry, and nearby half bath, along with a convenient back entry for everyday ease. A spacious family room addition opens to the freshly stained deck and backyard—perfect for gatherings and play. Upstairs you’ll find three bedrooms and a full bath, plus an additional nonconforming room that can serve as a 4th bedroom, office, nursery, or guest space. The lower level provides ample storage, laundry, and mechanicals including a newer furnace and A/C (2020). Recent exterior updates include a new roof and siding (2023). A one-car garage and two parking pad spots complete the package. With unmatched walkability to the river, parks, and transit—plus easy access to both downtowns and some of the Twin Cities’ best dining—this home blends historic charm with modern comfort in a prime location. Don’t miss it!
