Overview

Welcome to this quintessential St. Louis gingerbread-style home in the heart of the sought-after South Hampton neighborhood. Perfectly positioned just minutes from the vibrant Macklind Avenue business district, Hampton Avenue conveniences, and the sprawling greenery of Francis Park, this residence beautifully blends historic charm with a spacious second-story addition.

The Main Level: Historic Character Meets Timeless Style
From the moment you step onto the inviting front porch—complete with a relaxing porch swing—you’ll feel at home. Inside, the first floor is a showcase of classic craftsmanship, featuring:

Architectural Details: Stunning stained-glass windows bathe the first floor living spaces in colorful natural light.
Rich Finishes: Gleaming hardwood floors and original dark wood trim run throughout most of the first floor.
Elegant Transitions: Classic French doors open from the living areas to the hallway, leading to a main-floor bedroom, a full bathroom, and a sitting room which leads to the second floor.
Formal Dining: A separate dining room, anchored by a beautiful chandelier, is perfect for family dinners.
Functional Kitchen: The kitchen leads to a convenient 3-season mudroom, the ideal drop zone for coats and shoes before heading outside.

The Upper Level: A Modern Retreat
Unlike many homes in the area, this property features a large second-story addition designed for modern living:

Primary Suite: The expansive main bedroom serves as a true sanctuary, featuring a private en-suite bathroom.
Generous Space: Both upstairs bedrooms are impressively sized and include sought-after walk-in closets.

The Outdoors & Lower Level

Yard & Garage: The 3-season mudroom opens to a manicured backyard, with privacy fencing, a large patio and a separate area covered by a Pergola canopy. A one-car oversized detached garage is at the back of the level yard.
Basement: The walk-out basement offers a half-bath and an abundance of storage space, providing potential for a workshop or fitness area.

This is a rare opportunity to own a home that maintains its 1930s soul while offering the square footage and bedroom count today’s buyers crave. Walk, ride or drive to your favorite coffee shops, restaurants, and parks from this South City gem!
