This charming, historic brick Georgian Colonial overlooks the Mississippi River. Located in the coveted neighborhood of Kings Maplewood, it has had only four owners in nearly 100 years. For the last thirty years, the annual neighborhood horse-drawn hayride has gathered in front of this home. This gracious and comfortable home has a classic floor plan that is as relevant today as it was in 1932. The current owners consulted the original architectural blueprints to ensure the integrity of a large kitchen remodel, which includes a corner gas fireplace, informal dining area, and an abundance of built-in cabinetry. A testament to the quality of homes built circa 1932 is the original slate tile roof, original clay tile flooring in the sunroom, and colorful vintage bathroom tiles, which remain in excellent condition. Further evidence of the craftsmanship is the abundance of millwork, crystal hardware, and chandeliers throughout this stunning home. The classic 12/12 windows not only add historic character, but they also fill the house with sunshine and warmth. As you enter, you may feel a wave of nostalgia or even smile as you remember iconic staircase scenes from Father of the Bride or Home Alone. The feeling of home is very real, and this one will tug on your heart the moment you enter. The stellar location along the mighty Mississippi River will encourage an active lifestyle. Pedal, walk, or run along the stunning parkway overlooking the river. Enjoy nearby parks, restaurants, and convenient shopping. This is your opportunity to become a part of Saint Paul's history.
