Property Description

Classic 1920s charm meets thoughtful updates in this beautifully maintained St. Paul duplex, situated on a corner lot just off Wheelock Parkway and blocks from Lake Phalen Park. With scenic trails, established trees, and neighborhood green spaces nearby, the location is as appealing as the property itself. The main-floor residence lives like a classic bungalow, featuring refinished hardwood floors, original built-ins, a decorative fireplace and spacious living and dining rooms. An inviting sunroom, kitchen with walk-in pantry and stainless steel appliances and porch overlooking the backyard add to the appeal. The upper units thoughtful updates complement the home's original character. Refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint and millwork and updated lighting create a welcoming space. The reimagined kitchen features quartzite countertops, updated cabinetry, modern backsplash and newer appliances. Sun-filled living and dining rooms offer beautiful southern and western exposures, while updated dining room built-ins and a cozy nook overlooking the lush backyard add warmth and personality. Improvements inside and out reflect continued care and investment in the property, from significant exterior updates to refreshed interior finishes and mechanical improvements. Established landscaping, mature trees, and a new floating deck create an inviting outdoor setting with room to relax, garden, or gather. A rare three-car garage offers one private stall for the main-floor unit and two stalls for the upper residence. With its blend of original craftsmanship, meaningful improvements, and flexible living arrangements, this duplex presents a wonderful opportunity for an owner-occupant or investor seeking a property with enduring character.
