There is something special about finding a Merriam Park home for sale that has been beautifully maintained while still retaining the character that made it unique.
Located in Merriam Park West, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a little over 2,000 finished square feet and combines timeless St. Paul character with thoughtful updates for comfortable everyday living.

Classic St. Paul Character
One of the first things you’ll notice when walking into this home is how much original character remains.
Beautiful woodwork, built-ins, hardwood floors, large windows and abundant natural light give the interior a warmth that can be difficult to reproduce in newer construction.
A wood-burning fireplace creates a natural gathering place and adds even more character to the home’s inviting living spaces.

A Bright and Inviting Sunroom
One of my favorite spaces in the home is the bright sunroom. It’s the kind of room that can become whatever the next owner needs—a peaceful place for morning coffee, a reading room, a home office or simply somewhere to enjoy the changing Minnesota seasons.
Four Bedrooms and Flexible Living Space
With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the home provides plenty of flexibility.
The combination of original architectural details and thoughtful updates creates a balance between the charm of an older St. Paul home and the functionality buyers are looking for today.
A Backyard Designed to Be Enjoyed
The backyard is a true extension of the home.
Mature landscaping and beautiful perennial gardens surround an expansive paver patio, creating a wonderfully private setting for summer dinners, entertaining friends or simply relaxing outside.
The property also features a new oversized two-car garage, providing valuable parking and additional storage.
