Description
The current owners of this home have finished their one year assignment and are moving on, making this charming historic home available for purchase! In 1904 the World's Fair was in St. Louis and the first owners of this house were busy finishing construction. This charming historic home in the heart of Waterloo has been beautifully remodeled from top to bottom, blending modern comfort with timeless character. The main level offers a wide-open layout with high ceilings and a spacious living and dining area that flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen, and a flex space can accommodate a variety of needs. Hand-tooled wood border above the white crown molding accent is crafted from the original structure and shows the tool marks from the original builders. Soft special touches add warmth and authenticity, while neutral paint, beautiful flooring, recessed lighting, and modern fixtures create a fresh, inviting feel. The kitchen features a granite island with breakfast bar, white cabinetry, abundant storage, stainless appliances, a porcelain farmhouse sink, and pendant lighting. A practical drop-zone/mud room with exterior access and a centrally located powder room complete the main floor. Upstairs via the open central staircase, architectural details and dormer windows add charm to the bedrooms, which include fresh carpet, neutral paint, and ample closet space. The large primary suite offers a granite-topped double-sink vanity, ceramic flooring, a spacious step-in shower, a linen closet, and a massive walk-in closet that connects to a second closet housing the conveniently located upstairs laundry. Bedrooms two and three are generously sized with built-in wardrobe-style closets, and the shared hall bath features a subway-tile tub/shower combo and a roomy single vanity. Outside, the fully fenced backyard provides a private retreat with a large patio perfect for grilling and entertaining, plenty of space to enjoy a game of hopscotch, jump rope or roller skating while and a gravel walkway leads to the detached shed/garage. Recent improvements full interior remodel of 2023-2025, a new sewer line (2025), termite treatment (2025), exterior pressure washing with algae-prevention treatment, AC condensation pump (2025), epoxied porch, trimmed trees, new faucets, new door hardware, new porch lights, and updated interior fixtures (2025). The roof is approximately 2012, the zoned dual HVAC units are less than 15 years old, the washer and dryer are from 2024/25, and all other appliances are under five years old. With its thoughtful updates, historic charm, and move-in-ready condition, this adorable home is ready to welcome its next owners.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageRogers met all of our expectations. Our daughter was challenged and motivated and surrounded by staff who encouraged her in every aspect of her education. Although I've only had brief encounters with him, my daughter could never say enough about her principal (which to me says a lot about his level of involvement with the students!) We used Great Schools to choose which town to settle in when we relocated to the St. Louis area for work and could not be more pleased with our decision.Parent Review10y ago - Waterloo Junior High School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was nervous moving to a small town, as everyone knows everyone and wondered if this would reflect as a hindrance for my oldest in Kinder. When they started school, they were immediately welcomed, and the last 2 years have been phenomenal. Teachers have been transparent in what they teach, what children may need assistance with, and the plan to get them where they need to be. My child has truly excelled here! Definitely recommend, especially families of young ones.Parent Review2y ago - Gardner Elementary School
