Description for 838 Willard Street W, Stillwater, MN, 55082
Offered for the first time, this remarkable Stillwater home is more than a residence—it’s a chapter of history brought lovingly into the present. Originally built as a stable on the original farmstead in 1872, it then served the Long House at 811 Pine Street as a barn with servants quarters on the second floor. It then evolved into a duplex in 1918 before undergoing a thoughtful transformation at the turn of this century. Around 2000, the current owners lifted the home, added a foundation and all things mechanical, electrical, and plumbing, and reimagined the structure as a warm and inviting single-family residence. Shake siding, elegant porches, brick patios, and lush perennial gardens were added, along with a grand garage featuring an unfinished upper level awaiting your vision. Inside, hardwood floors, several sets of French doors, two fireplaces, and inviting spaces create an atmosphere reminiscent of a European country house - both refined and relaxed. A generous primary suite crowns the second floor, while the main level offers two legal bedrooms (currently a den and a library) and a 3/4 bath, allowing for main-level living and with doorways that even offer wheelchair accessibility. The lower level—complete with a separate entrance and legal bedroom—has served as a home-based business and could become a private apartment. The courtyard is straight out of a magazine with its fountain, pergola, and perennial gardens. With so many possibilities for its use and enjoyment, this home offers flexibility for modern life while honoring its historic roots. One of Stillwater’s most loved homes, tucked on a quiet street, is ready for its next chapter. Will it be yours?
