Description

Presenting an extraordinary chance to acquire a piece of Saint Louis's rich architectural history & restore it to its former glory. This commanding, full masonry home, built in 1898 by a prominent local doctor, is a testament to the enduring quality & distinguished style of the era. It stands ready for a complete & visionary transformation, promising a truly spectacular finished residence. The property is offered as a full renovation project, a blank canvas for a dedicated developer, a seasoned investor, or a homeowner eager to pour their passion into a historic revival. More than just a house, this property carries a deep & compelling service history, having been an integral part of the community for over a century. Notably, it opened its doors as a boarding house during the challenging years of the Great Depression, offering shelter & a place of community. Its walls hold a profound connection to the city's past, & the future owner will become the next steward of this irreplaceable heritage. The home's original details are breathtaking, showcasing an elegance & craftsmanship rarely found today. Upon entering, you are greeted by soaring ceilings that amplify the sense of space & light. The stately, original hardwood pocket doors are intact, offering a dramatic touch & a graceful separation between rooms. Throughout the interior, you will find original hardwood doors, each a piece of art in itself. This offering is made even more appealing by its practical amenities & substantial footprint. The home sits on a highly desirable double lot, providing ample outdoor space for landscaping, a private garden oasis, or potential expansion. A dedicated two-car garage offers essential off-street parking & storage, a premium in a historic district. This is not a simple cosmetic update; this is an opportunity to execute a full, custom-designed renovation. The potential return on investment, both financial & emotional, for restoring a home with this level of original detail & historic significance is enormous. Imagine the modern luxury blended seamlessly with the irreplaceable 19th-century architecture. Don't let this chance pass to secure a home that tells a story, commands attention, & offers a canvas for architectural brilliance. New Roof!

    "This specific area is very friendly and is a traditional neighborhood in the sense that the neighbors are on a first-name basis. They have parties, neighborhood meetings and are very watchful of anything out of the ordinary. With the park across the street (Water Tower park), this is a gorgeous, safe, artsy neighborhood."
