This charming residence built in 1915 is rich with history and was featured on the White Bear Lake Historical Society Tour in 2017. Inside, a rustic charm shines with details like the staircases’ original farmhouse light fixture – once holding candlesticks, now converted to electric. The open family room is highlighted by a vaulted wood-beam ceiling and a warm brick fireplace. The updated kitchen flows into a convenient wet bar area complete with built-in wine storage and a wine cooler. Enjoy multi-season living in the light-filled sunroom leading out to the back deck. Set on a sprawling lot of just over half an acre, the property features a fully chain-link fenced yard with peaceful, tree-lined views. Multiple cozy bedrooms offer bright natural light, and one main-level bedroom has been plumbed for laundry, adding flexibility for single-level living. Nestled in a prime location close to local amenities, parks, and White Bear Lake - don't miss this beautiful home!
