About 786 Thomas Ave

Vintage charm abounds in this classic St Paul 2 story home! Stepping onto the inviting front porch, you'll step back into a simpler time and be tempted to sit and relax to enjoy the view of the park across the street (and the perfect spot for plants to grow!) Once inside, the foyer with original wood banister and front door, natural wood trim and leaded glass window welcomes you. The living room area is spacious for entertaining and features its own classic flare with an original stained glass front picture window! Ornate pillars between the living room and dining room are a decorator's dream! The kitchen features brand new flooring and countertops, updated cabinetry, a new faucet, stainless steel appliances, and ample room for meal prep! The main level bathroom was completely gutted and redone: you'll love the gorgeous tile, vanity, walk-in shower, and hardware. It is true luxury!! Opening the patio door to the back of the home is a delight! You'll find a covered and enclosed porch, complete with string lights. It's so quiet and peaceful, you'll enjoy every morning sipping your coffee and a perfect spot to unwind at the end of the day. There is a patio space and raised garden beds, all enclosed in a private backyard. The 2+ car detached garage has a storage shed attached with shelving - making your storage needs a breeze! Garage access from alley. Once back inside, the open wooden staircase will take you to the upper level, that features 2 ample size bedrooms with original hardwood floors and deep closet space. The upstairs full bathroom was also completely gutted and features a chic custom built wood vanity that is not only functional but absolutely beautiful! The full basement is usable for storage, a work out area or flex space and has the laundry room.
