Classic 1917 bungalow character meets a little equity opportunity in the heart of Highland Park! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is loaded with the original details buyers dream of finding: quarter-sawn oak trim, a built-in china cabinet, oak staircase, and a bright enclosed front sunporch — all sitting on solid bones in one of St. Paul’s most beloved neighborhoods.
The main level offers a classic center-hall layout with hardwood floors throughout, a formal dining room anchored by a stunning built-in hutch, and a kitchen ready for your vision. Upstairs, you’ll find all three bedrooms plus a full bath with a soaking tub, awaiting fresh updates. A second full bath on the lower level adds everyday convenience.
The drain-tiled basement is clean, dry, and full of potential — enclose the laundry area and you’ve got a great future family room or rec space, plus plenty of additional storage.
This home needs some cosmetic updates, but the craftsman character that’s original to this era is all here and largely untouched — the kind of detail that’s expensive or impossible to replicate in new construction. Priced to reflect the work ahead, this is a fantastic opportunity for an owner-occupant with vision or an investor looking for a solid Highland Park project with mature tree-lined streets, great walkability, and easy access to shops, parks, and top-rated schools.
Bring your ideas — this one shine’s with opportuntiy.
