About this property

Welcome home to this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath gem in sought-after Merriam Park/Lexington-Hamline - steps from the park across the street! This 1914 charmer blends timeless character with major modern updates, giving buyers the best of both worlds. A permitted lower-level conversion (2018) added two spacious legal bedrooms with code-compliant egress windows, a 3/4 bathroom, and a hallway - perfect for guests, a home office setup, or growing family needs. The upper level offers a full bath. Major systems are done: new roof (2024), new siding (2021), new furnace (2021), and fresh interior paint throughout (2026) mean your new owners can move in and simply enjoy. The 2018 basement remodel was paired with a full round of system updates - new electrical panel, water heater, dishwasher, and washer/dryer - so the big-ticket items are already handled. Freshly refinished hardwood floors, natural woodwork, and an informal dining room preserve the home's 1914 character, while the insulated detached garage with opener adds everyday convenience. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street directly across from a neighborhood park, this location offers easy access to freeways, shopping, entertainment, and nearby Macalester College and Concordia University. Don't miss this rare combination of legal square footage, updated systems, and unbeatable location!
