Fantastic location in the Merriam Park area of St Paul, where homes rarely come on the market. This stately brick and stucco 2 1/2 story with a 60ft x150ft lot on a quiet residential street with 4 bedrooms, 3 baths with an office/study and 2 decks is ready for a new owner to love and care for it. There are hardwood floors throughout with stunning original wood trim on the main level, which has an open flow and welcoming feel. The spacious living room features original built-in bookcases with glass doors and a wood-burning fireplace. An attractive wood archway leads to the dining room, which has elegant wood wainscoting, wood beam ceiling and beautiful built-in buffet. Though French doors, you enter the cozy sunroom, which has lovely custom-made bookcases and a half bath to the side, a rarity in houses of the era. The kitchen has a separate pantry and airy dining area that looks out on to the desk and backyard garden. Upstairs, space is well used, with three bedrooms, a study/office (or additional bedroom), a full updated bath and linen closet branching off a hallway. The sunny owners suite on the southeast corner includes a full updated bath. The study/office has a splendid view of the backyard garden and beyond through a glass sliding door, which opens to an upper deck. A flight of stairs lead to a spacious semi finished attic, with a walk-in cedar closet, additional storage space and a small bedroom on the west. The house has many lovely external features, including a shady front porch with custom-made three season awning and deck at the back of the house large enough for a patio table and chairs with room to spare. The deck overlooks a large fenced-in backyard with a lush, low-maintenance garden that is a true urban oasis. An underground sprinkler system and spacious two-car detached garage built in 2014 with storage space complete the picture. The neighborhood is very walkable, with Summit Ave, the longest street of Victorian homes in the country, just around the corner. Close to dining, shopping and the airport. The house is known as The Firestone house. Distance to airport: 5 miles. Distance to I-94 1 1/2 miles.
