Among the cottages, Tudors, and Craftsman-style bungalows, this multi-level contemporary ’70s throwback is a surprise tucked into this charming St. Paul village of St. Anthony Park. Listed in July, the three-bedroom, two-bathroom, 1,934-square-foot home features mid-century modern remnants, like green carpets and sleek wood finishes, but notable to the 1978 home is the salon setup in the basement from its days as a former hair salon. Don’t miss the old-school newspaper wallpaper in the laundry room.
