A brief delay in interior painting postponed professional photography, which will be added on Saturday, June 21st.
Nestled atop historic Pill Hill in South St. Paul, this charming 1939 two-story blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates in one of the city’s most distinctive neighborhoods. With manicured landscaping, perennial gardens, and classic architectural details, this home offers warmth, function, and enduring curb appeal.
The main level welcomes you with hardwood floors, a spacious living and dining room combo, and a wood-burning fireplace that anchors the space with cozy charm. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and connects easily to the foyer, half bath, and a large mudroom—ideal for everyday organization and entryway flow.
Upstairs, you’ll find all three bedrooms together along with an updated full bath, providing privacy and practicality. The finished lower level includes a comfortable family room with an egress window, plank flooring (2020), and refreshed carpet (2018)—a perfect area for lounging, movie nights, or creative space. You’ll also find a laundry area and ample storage.
Step outside to a beautifully landscaped yard designed for both relaxation and beauty. A brick patio is surrounded by raised garden beds, mature plantings, and a peaceful pond with fountain (added in 2018). Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning coffee or hosting a summer gathering, the setting offers an inviting, serene retreat.
Major updates provide lasting value and peace of mind: new roof on both the house and shed (2021), new furnace (2025), sliding patio door (2021), awning (2022), bathroom refresh (2020), and nearly all light fixtures replaced within the past five years. The home was freshly painted in 2025 for a bright, welcoming finish.
Additional highlights include a one-and-a-half-car attached garage, a steel support beam (ensuring long-term structural integrity), and wood privacy fencing that enhances both charm and security.
Set on a quiet street in a sought-after hillside community, this home combines historic appeal, smart updates, and a setting that feels both tucked away and connected. A rare gem on Pill Hill—ready to welcome its next chapter.
