Property Description
The light-filled main level features soaring ceilings, exposed brick, engineered wood flooring, recessed lighting, and an open yet defined layout ideal for daily living and entertaining. The family room flows into the breakfast area and formal dining space.
The galley kitchen offers stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, open shelving, farmhouse sink, and generous prep space, designed for both function and style.
The second level includes a spacious guest bedroom, laundry room, and a stunning primary suite with custom ensuite bath featuring tile flooring, dual vanity, walk-in shower, and clawfoot soaking tub. Custom Elfa closet systems maximize storage throughout.
The third floor provides an additional bedroom, office or flex space, and full bath, ideal for guests, remote work, or creative use.
Interior upgrades include stabilization of the third-floor staircase with the installation of a newel post, new tile flooring in the half bath, a custom under-stair bar, and a stunning living room fireplace mantel that blends historic character with craftsmanship. The fireplace surround was created using reclaimed stone salvaged from the cellar, while the wood mantel and trim were custom-built to complement the home's architectural style.
The backyard has been completely transformed from mud and straw into a true outdoor living space, now featuring a brick patio, professional landscaping, privacy fencing, and an oversized two-car concrete parking pad. A custom-built St. Louis City garage with an electric overhead door faces the alley, providing both the convenience and appearance of a garage.
Additional exterior updates include a new TPO roof, wrought iron front stair handrail and cellar window bars, front and rear landscaping with stone and brick walkways, exterior painting, and a Level 2 electric vehicle charger.
A rare opportunity to own a move-in ready home where historic charm meets modern convenience in an unbeatable Lafayette Square location.
Wine cooler, along with the refrigerator, washer, dryer, and stove currently in the home, are included in the sale.
Note: For comparison to the 2022 purchase, MLS #22007124 shows the prior backyard, living room, and earlier roof condition.
