About this home

Spacious craftsman in Merriam Park with CENTRAL AC, just one block from St. Thomas College. This home oozes original charm yet has in-demand updates. Freshly painted exterior (July 2026) and interior walls (May 2026). The covered & enclosed front porch adds curb appeal and extends living space. You will notice lovely original features throughout the interior, including gorgeous woodwork, doors and staircase. Windows are large and allow natural light to flood in. The updated kitchen is open concept with newer cabinetry, granite counters and a brand new range. The lighting in the kitchen does not disappoint, with its combination of natural light, recessed lighting plus pendants. Just off the kitchen and dining room is a wonderful and surprising feature for a home in this area - a sun-filled main floor family room with soft, new carpeting (2026). Tucked away past the kitchen, you will find an updated 3/4 bath and a mudroom area. As you ascend the staircase to the second level, notice the window details, including the stained glass pane mid-stairwell. The second level features 4 bedrooms with 8-foot ceilings. Be certain to step fully into the primary bedroom - you will be surprised by how unusually large it is. The smallest of the bedrooms has a very special feature: a balcony! This room would make an amazing office or perhaps your dream walk-in closet. A full bath with leaded glass window completes the second level. Wait! There is a 3rd level! The former attic space has been finished as bonus space. Just imagine how you might use this extra space. In the lower level, you will find laundry, mechanicals plus unfinished space. This home features high-efficiency forced-air heat as well as central AC (new AC unit July 2026) - very rare in this area. Behind the home, you will find a patio for grilling and an oversized, newer 2-car garage. Located near restaurants, shops, Mississippi River trails, transit and with quick highway access. This home is not to be missed. Some photos include virtual staging. 4th bedroom is staged two different ways - as a walk-in closet and as an office, to illustrate possibilities.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
