About 1278 Hubbard Avenue

Initially a cookie cutter starter home this bungalow almost doubled in liveable space to it's current 5 bedrooms, 1 and 3/4 bath on the same delightful corner lot on a street lined with mature canopy trees and boulevard gardens. While the original first floor bedrooms remain the kitchen /living room offer a modern open concept and the upstairs addition boasts more spacious bedrooms with daylight windows and an inviting den/family space. Farmhouse styling, refinished original first level oak floors and new laminate kitchen floor keeps it simple while upstairs bedrooms offer cozier new carpet. Front yard is fenced and eligible for a 5 foot front porch under a 'friendly neighborhood' type initiative the City of Saint Paul adopted several years ago which softens the setback requirements. The back yard will also be fenced before closing and currently awaits YOUR vision - previously it sported an above ground pool, pirate ship play structure, raised bed vegetable gardens and many a water balloon fight ??. New gutters and an outside light fixture will make hanging exterior lights a breeze, if that's your pleasure, and all mechanical systems have been modernized over the years so it should be quite some time before you have to ask yourself 'what's that sound?'. On top of all this it's within walking distance of the State Fair grounds, Como Park Conservatory and Zoo (don't forget to visit the historic Cafesjian Carousel ??), a newly rebuilt city library, community park with accessibility features and the Minnesota Loons stadium, among other things. Two car garage with space for two more cars in driveway makes it easy to avoid snowbird tickets during a 'weather event' and the corner lot location means you usually have adequate parking for guests. Neighbors are pretty cool, too ??. Don't wait to make this centrally located home yours!
