About this home
Step into history with modern luxury! This fully remodeled 1911 American Foursquare Craftsman—once the iconic “Butter Maker’s Home” owned by St. Michael Creamery in 1938—rests on a sprawling .59-acre lot in the heart of St. Michael. Over the past decade, the home has undergone a complete professional renovation, including new windows, expert woodworking, handcrafted parquet and refinished hardwood floors, updated appliances, the addition of a main-floor bedroom and 2nd full bath, also a main-level laundry just off the kitchen. The transformation was recently crowned with a fresh interior and pool fence repaint as of September 2025, flawlessly blending over a century of historic charm with modern luxury. A spacious European-style paver courtyard makes entertaining effortless—perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, or falling asleep to courtyard views through French doors from Bedroom #1. From there, move seamlessly to the adjacent deck with gas firepit to finish the evening, perhaps with a s’more in hand. Spend summer days in the heated in-ground pool with custom concrete deck and gazebo pool-house, offering both privacy and leisure. Just beyond, the lower St. Michael connector trail runs along the south property line, linking you directly to the Crow River, Hanover, and beyond—all just steps from your backyard. Inside the 2,162-SF home, the main floor now boasts a main-floor bedroom and full bath, a versatile art studio or office, and a cozy gas fireplace. The expansive kitchen features two-tone cabinetry, sleek black appliances, and a breakfast bar for three, flowing seamlessly into a generous dining area—perfect for entertaining or everyday living. Upstairs, discover three additional bedrooms and a massive walk-up, R-value rated, spray foamed attic with dormer window, ideal for storage, hobbies, or a creative studio. Signature “frosting” stucco from the early 1900s adds timeless charm, while the home’s solid construction ensures exceptional warmth and comfort through every Minnesota winter. The extra-large 784-SF heated garage and connected to an additional 432-SF workshop (heated with 54,000 BTU gas furnace) with central vacuum system. Multiple decks, a shed, and that French-inspired fenced courtyard make this property as functional as it is beautiful. The professional artist and woodworker are thrilled to pass this Historic, maintenance-free Dream Home on to a new steward—someone who appreciates finer things and desires a property that blends heritage, craftsmanship, and modern living into one unforgettable package. This isn’t just a home—it’s a 114-year-old piece of St. Michael history, fully restored and updated for today’s lifestyle. Buyers seeking extreme Historic character, modern upgrades, and instant equity will find it all here. Homes like this rarely hit the market, making this your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
