Thanks to Curieously for sending this 1892 Victorian Painted Lady in St. Paul, Minnesota. The extensively renovated beauty has 7bds, 4.5ba, $1.695M.
Original oak doors with beveled glass inserts.
I mean, this place was reno'd right. Look at this magnificent entrance hall. All the incredible millword is preserved right down to the brass newel post lamp.
Look at this fireplace. Incredible. It looks like the molding was lightened and refinished, but not painted. Yay!
The fireplaces in this home are amazing. So many and each one different.
Another beautiful fireplace in the dining room. This one is recessed in the wall and is a display case.
The large primary bedroom is elegant with its lovely fireplace and room for a sitting area in front of it.
The en-suite was completely remodeled and features a vintage sink.
How cool is this room? Look at the magnificent bar. The elevated chairs on the right look like they came out of an old shoemaker shop. I wonder if they convey.
Check out the TV room.
The new kitchen cabinets were chosen to match the original cupboard in the wall.
Look at this, and even though it was refinished, it still has the patina.
Look at the ceiling in the office. Whomever painted those clouds was very talented.
Beautiful vintage bath.
Large exercise room with a tin ceiling.
This is interesting, 3 sinks in a row.
And, look at the cool wine cellar.
There's also a lovely 2 car garage with another residence.
This is a beautiful rental.
It even has a dining room with a built-in cabinet.
New kitchen with white Shaker cabinets.
Very nice bedroom.
And, vintage bath.
This home is on a .51 acre lot.
