There aren’t many homes with a story like this one. The original structure dates back approximately 150 years and was physically moved from Lake Avenue to this corner lot in 2001 — and it’s been lovingly evolved ever since. Walls came down to open up the main living area, where a preserved coffered ceiling adds a layer of character that stops people in their tracks. Granite surfaces run through the kitchen, bar, and fireplace surround, and a dedicated office behind French doors still showcases the home’s original floor-to-ceiling windows. The updates are everywhere, but so is the soul.
Day-to-day living is just as considered — a mudroom and attached heated garage make coming and going effortless, two bedrooms upstairs each have their own ensuite, and the basement is finished with warm barn wood accents. The courtyard out back is its own world: fully fenced with a brick patio, water fountain, pet turf, and professional landscaping that makes it easy to forget you’re in a neighborhood.
Two blocks to White Bear Lake, quiet street, long-term neighbors, and a home that genuinely can’t be duplicated. Own a part of history.
