704 White Bear Ave N, Saint Paul, MN 55106

Description

Classic 1926 Craftsman bungalow with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1,134 finished square feet. In nearly 100 years, the home has had only three owners. A 23-foot enclosed front porch with windows on three sides opens to the living room. Refinished hardwood floors, natural oak woodwork, crown moulding, and a built-in arched colonnade carry through to the separate formal dining room. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, over-the-range microwave, and refrigerator, along with new flooring, a brick backsplash, and wood cabinetry. The main-floor full bathroom was updated in 2026 with a white tile tub-and-shower surround, black-and-white hex tile floor, and a console sink. Both bedrooms are on the main level with hardwood floors. A 33x9 walk-up attic with plank flooring could be finished for added living space and offers plenty of storage as is. The lower level adds a 12x21 family room with a brick-front bar area, an open-style 3/4 bathroom, a laundry area with a utility sink, a storage room with built-in cabinets, and a utility room. The 2022 washer and dryer and the lower-level deep freeze are included. Mechanicals include a 2012 furnace and central air conditioner, a 2017 roof, and 100-amp circuit breaker electrical service. Outside, the extra-deep, partially fenced backyard has a paver patio, a fire pit area, and mature trees, plus a detached garage off the asphalt driveway. Hazel Park playground is about half a mile away. Sun Ray Shopping Center and Sun Ray Library are about a mile away. Battle Creek Regional Park and Lake Phalen are each about two miles away, with quick I-94 access and downtown Saint Paul about 3.5 miles west. The local favorite "The Little Oven" Pizza & Eatery is steps away!
