Just Listed: This handsome 1926 University City, Missouri two-story boasts everything that a Buyer could possibly wish for: original architectural charm, updates galore, a fabulous outdoor living space, and a spectacular location nestled between the Delmar Loop and Washington University in the highly-sought after Ames Place Subdivision. Walk to eateries, shopping, theater at COCA, the U City library, and all of the fabulous amenities of Forest Park and The Loop.
This impressive 4 bedroom/2 bath home features a lovely open floorplan ideal for entertaining, gorgeous natural light, and a ton of flexible living space including a main floor office nook and dreamy 4 season room with cozy radiant floor heating and a fishbowl backyard view. If you have a chef in the family, they will fall for the thoughtfully renovated kitchen with timeless finishes, oodles of custom cabinets, and gas cooking. Chef's kiss!
Heading upstairs, there are 4 sizable bedrooms including the original window-lined sleeping porch with an adorable private rooftop terrace for morning coffee or yoga. It is a true treehouse experience and would be a fabulous office or hobby room.
Heading downstairs, you would never guess that you are in a century home as the walk-up lower level is light, bright, and tidy.
Heading outside is the perfect private backyard with a 6 foot wood fence for privacy, mature trees for shade, a herringbone brick patio for gatherings, a playset, and endless possibilities. Bring your twinkle lights! There is also a meticulous 1 car brick garage.
There are far too many updates or original architectural goodies to mention here. Offered for 595k and showings start this Friday. Tour the inside and learn more about this gorgeous home at www.444Melville.com, !
