Property Description
Much of the interior has already been opened to the framing, allowing contractors to immediately assess the structure and begin reconstruction. The home retains many of the architectural features that make historic St. Louis properties so desirable, including soaring ceilings, pocket doors, oversized window openings, original millwork, original exterior tile floors at entryway, multiple fireplaces, exposed brick, and generous room sizes that are difficult to replicate in new construction.
The property requires a comprehensive renovation, including replacement of the roof, making it best suited for experienced investors, contractors, or buyers seeking a true value-add project. The existing layout, updated windows, and exposed structural components provide a clear canvas for redesign while preserving the character of this classic brick building.
Located in Penrose, an area seeing continued reinvestment and renovation activity, this property presents an opportunity to create substantial equity through thoughtful restoration. Whether your vision is a modern owner-occupied residence, a renovated duplex, a long-term rental, or a resale project, the possibilities are significant.

Bring your contractor, your designer, and your imagination—opportunities offering this size, flexibility, and potential at this price point are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're planning a premium single-family resale, long-term rental, or historic restoration, much of the exploratory demolition has already been completed.
