This isn't just a home styled like a firehouse... it is the firehouse. This building was the active St. Paul Station 23 from 1923 until 1978, housing the crew and pumper of Engine 3 for over 50 years.

Today, it has been fully renovated to blend its raw, industrial character with high-end modern living.

The Private Quarters

This home is thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and private living.

• Owner's Sanctuary: The entire upper level is a private owner's suite, offering a generous, loft-like feel with ample closet space.

• Guest Level: The middle level features two additional bedrooms and a full bath, perfect for family or guests.

A Car Collector's Dream & A Private Studio
