Discover this classic three-bedroom split-level home, nestled in one of South St. Paul’s peaceful neighborhoods. Loved by the same owners for nearly 40 years, this spacious home enjoys a beautiful wooded setting, exceptional backyard privacy, and the rare feeling of being tucked away while remaining close to everything.

The inviting living room features charming coved ceilings, expansive windows that fill the space with natural light, and a striking two-sided fireplace. The adjoining dining room flows comfortably into the kitchen, creating an ideal layout for everyday living and entertaining. Sliding doors open to a generous deck overlooking the private, tree-lined backyard. The thoughtfully designed kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and practical workspace.

Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms feature generous closets, ceiling fans, and windows framing peaceful treetop views. A shared bathroom includes a spacious step-in shower, vanity, and convenient linen storage.

The walk-in level offers a welcoming entry foyer, laundry room with utility sink, and convenient access to the attached garage and backyard patio. Downstairs, the handsome family room features a brick fireplace and dry bar, making it a wonderful space for gatherings, game nights, or relaxing evenings. A separate office or den offers additional flexibility, while the mechanical room provides abundant storage and an additional shower.

Significant updates add peace of mind, including a newer roof, high-efficiency furnace, new central air conditioning, updated electrical throughout, and a newer asphalt driveway.

The true standout is the setting. Surrounded by mature trees and bordered by a wooded ravine, the backyard offers an exceptional sense of privacy with very few neighboring homes in view. A spacious deck, patio, and two potential storage sheds provide plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

Located on the desirable north end of South St. Paul, this home offers a wonderful combination of space, privacy, and convenience. A special setting, a well-loved home, and an opportunity to make it your own!
