Description for 690 James Avenue, Saint Paul, MN, 55102
Classic two-story St. Paul craftsman farmhouse style home with the kind of original character that is genuinely hard to find. Soaring 10-foot ceilings give the main level an airy, open feel, and the original built-ins add storage with real craftsmanship behind them. The enclosed front porch is a three-season bonus space with oversized windows that pull in natural light from three directions. The kitchen is anchored by a deep, wide farmhouse apron sink that is original to the home. The real thing, not a reproduction. Paired with the genuine wood cabinetry, it gives the space an authenticity that a renovation simply cannot replicate. Newer windows throughout keep things tight and efficient without sacrificing the period feel. Three bedrooms and a full bathroom with a six-foot clawfoot tub round out the upper level. The basement includes a sump pump already in place. Out back, an oversized two-car detached garage sits at the end of a concrete driveway, a genuinely practical setup. This is a home for a buyer who appreciates what vintage Saint Paul housing stock was built to be. Schedule your showing today and come see it for yourself.
