Property Description
Welcome to 1161 Van Buren Ave! Here we have a solid 4-bedroom, 1-bath home tucked into a corner lot in Saint Paul's Hamline-Midway neighborhood, a neighborhood on the rise with new development and reinvestment taking root. Built in 1940 and well maintained throughout, this home offers original character and a layout that's ready to move right in. The corner lot brings extra yard space and light, plus a 2-car garage that's in excellent condition which is a rare find in this price range. Downstairs, the basement's high ceilings create real potential to finish additional living space and build equity over time. Enjoy a quiet, established block with quick highway access, putting downtown, shopping, and dining just minutes away. Clean, cared for, and ready for its next chapter!
