About the Listing EXRT01 - JCAMMARA

This house may have a mystery of its own. There is a certain feeling that comes over you when you step inside a house like this. Maybe it is the towering ceilings, the creak of the floors beneath your feet, the fading light moving through old windows, or the quiet presence of a home that has stood through generations of St. Louis history. Whatever it is, this house seems to have a story, and some say, perhaps, a few stories that were never meant to be forgotten. Standing proudly on a focal-point lot, this remarkable 3-story historic residence is waiting for someone with the vision to bring it back to its former glory. Grand in scale and rich in original character, it is the kind of home that invites you to slow down, look a little closer, and wonder about everything these walls may have witnessed. Boasting 6+ bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a dramatic 3-story side turret, 3 fireplaces, soaring 10 and 12 foot ceilings, a grand entrance foyer, pocket doors, and original custom millwork, the home possesses the craftsmanship and character rarely found in modern construction. The rear of the home features upper and lower covered balconies overlooking a private courtyard framed by an old brick wall and fountain. An additional third-floor area offers approximately 780 sq. ft. of extra space that is not reflected in the tax records, while the unfinished walkout basement provides even more possibilities for someone ready to restore and reimagine this historic property. And then there are the stories. It has been said that shadows have been seen moving past the third-story windows around twilight , fleeting forms appearing where no one is known to be. The current owner has never personally witnessed them, so whether they are simply tricks of fading light and reflection, or something that defies easy explanation, is left to the imagination. For those drawn to historic homes, architectural treasures, and the unexplained, this property offers something particularly rare: a home with atmosphere, mystery, and a story still being told. Perhaps the next chapter belongs to you. Located with easy access to Highway 55 and all that St. Louis has to offer; the property also has commercial potential, subject to applicable city approvals. Property is being sold AS-IS. Seller will do no inspections or repairs. Seller financing is not available. STREET PARKING ONLY AT THIS TIME. PLEASE DO NOT STEP OUT ONTO THE BALCONIES — THEY ARE SPONGY AND SHOULD NOT BE ACCESSED.
