About This Home
This one-of-a-kind family home was thoughtfully designed and built with entertaining in mind. Lovingly cared for by the same family for over 60 years, this home radiates warmth, history, and offers timeless charm with key updates made over the years—including brand-new windows throughout, a new roof, and a refreshed lower-level bathroom.
Step back in time and appreciate the character of this well-preserved era, complete with a pristine original oven and cooktop in the kitchen. The spacious entryway welcomes you with a walk-in cloakroom and a stunning statement staircase, flowing into an open-plan living room. Dreaming of an open-concept kitchen? Removing a single wall could transform this space into an entertainer’s showpiece.
Perched on a wooded hilltop, the home gives the feeling of arriving at a private cabin retreat—surrounded by mature pines and a winding fairytale-like path.
All of this, just steps from Highland National Golf Course and walking distance to the Highland Community Pool. Enjoy unbeatable access to parks, top-rated schools, and local shops in one of Saint Paul’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
Don’t miss your chance to own this special home!
