*Entered for Comparable purposes* A rare Lafayette Square offering where historic character, grand proportions, and an exceptional outdoor setting come together. Set on a double lot in one of St. Louis’ most beloved historic and walkable neighborhoods, this striking late-19th-century residence delivers the architectural presence you hope to find in a historic home, paired with thoughtful updates for modern living.

Inside, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, two living areas, a mud room, and an impressive collection of indoor and outdoor living spaces. Original charm is complemented by refinished and restored details, while functional gas fireplaces in the parlor and second-floor den add warmth and ambiance. The third-floor primary suite features newly installed hardwood floors, and the second-floor guest bedrooms have new carpet. Custom doors, restored windows, repaired plaster, and fresh paint throughout multiple living spaces and bedrooms further enhance the home.

Outdoor living is truly exceptional. Two decks and a private rooftop with downtown St. Louis and Gateway Arch views, while the expansive private grounds offer an outdoor kitchen, custom fire pit, multiple gathering areas, brick pathways, and professionally redesigned landscaping. The grounds are designed for everything from quiet mornings to memorable entertaining.

The detached two-car garage is a destination of its own, with access from both the street and yard, insulation, an indoor basketball hoop, and new garage doors and keypads. Practical improvements continue throughout the property, including a new third-floor roof, parapet wall, gutters and gutter guards; new water heater; new third-floor air-conditioning unit; updated thermostat; irrigation back-flow pump; security system updates; and a new range/oven. Ten windows, side windows, and stained glass have been restored while balcony flooring, railings, doors, and frames have also received attention.

Recent 2026 work includes repaired plaster and fresh paint in the exercise room, bedrooms, second-floor living room, third-floor primary, and first-floor parlor/living room. Every improvement has been thoughtfully undertaken while preserving the distinctive character that makes this home so special.

Bold without being showy, sophisticated yet inviting, this is a home made for living, entertaining, and enjoying everything Lafayette Square has to offer. With its remarkable double-lot setting, architectural character, spectacular rooftop views, extraordinary garage, and beautifully designed grounds, this is an opportunity that is truly difficult to replicate.
