About The Listing

Lovingly maintained by the same owners for more than 60 years, this classic mid-century raised rambler near Como Lake and Marydale Park offers timeless character in one of Saint Paul's sought-after areas.

The upper level showcases beautiful hardwood floors in the bedrooms (and under the carpet in the living and dining rooms and hallway!), clean architectural lines, and the thoughtful design that makes mid-century homes so enduring. The open living and dining room flows into a spacious kitchen with abundant storage, creating an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. Three bright bedrooms with recently refinished hardwood floors and a full bath featuring a porcelain tub and vintage tile complete the main level.

Downstairs, the expansive knotty pine family room is full of warmth and possibility—perfect for movie nights, or game days. With easy access to the outdoors, this could also flex to a home office, workshop, or hobby space. A convenient half bath, laundry area, attached tuck-under garage, and mudroom with built-in seating add everyday functionality, while the backyard storage shed offers plenty of room for bikes, tools, and outdoor gear.

The covered patio extends your living space outdoors, making it easy to enjoy Minnesota summers rain or shine. Major updates—including a new roof, new concrete patio slab, and freshly painted cedar siding in 2023—provide peace of mind for years to come.

Classic mid-century style, three bedrooms on one level, thoughtful updates, and an great location make this a home you won't want to miss.
