655 Simpson Street

Well maintained 1912 two story on a well kept street in Saint Paul's Hamline-Midway. Out back is a true heated shop: 24x24 detached, fully insulated, 10 foot ceilings, 240V service, with the heat on a programmable timer so it is warm before you walk in.

Inside, the big work has been done. Main level plaster was replaced with drywall and the walls were reinsulated while they were open, every ceiling had the popcorn removed and was resurfaced with knockdown, and hardwood floors run under the carpet throughout. The roof was new in 2020, the water heater in 2023, and the electrical panel was updated to circuit breakers with a hardwired smoke detector in 2015. The chimney was tuckpointed with a new cap in 2012 and the main water shutoffs were replaced with ball valves this year. Vinyl siding and an insulated attic mean the exterior never needs paint.

The basement has tall ceilings, stays very dry, and leaves room to expand.

Located six blocks from the Green Line light rail and under a mile from Allianz Field, with Hamline University and the shops and restaurants along Snelling Avenue nearby. Easy access to I-94 and both downtowns.
