Description

Welcome home to this adorable “cottage in the woods” in the heart of St. Paul! Located just blocks from Lake Phalen, this 2 bed/1 bath stucco home is refreshed and ready for its next owner to fall in love with its charm! Walking up to the home, the gorgeous tree coverage gives the impression that you stumbled upon the cottage while taking a stroll in the forest. The home features a wonderfully shaded front porch, perfect for sipping a warm drink on a cool evening. The living room blends with the informal dining room to create a large, but cozy living space that feels warm and lush, with hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and original woodwork, but with modern windows. Both bedrooms are roughly the same size and are located on either side of the freshly updated full bathroom. The newly brightened kitchen is comfortable and functional, and leads down to a full height unfinished basement giving loads of potential to expand living space. Speaking of potential expansion…the story and a half is also unfinished, but could make a perfect primary suite for the right owner! The back deck is big enough to comfortably have furniture and the small backyard makes good use of the space by having a small firepit setup and canopy umbrella on one side and flower beds with an abundance of pollinators. There is also plenty of parking available with a one-car garage, as well as two additional parking spaces, all accessible from the alley. While you are in the neighborhood, be sure to check out the gorgeous lake and the parks. And stop by some of the favorite restaurants, all extremely walkable, like Wong’s or iheartpho!
