Tucked away on a private, wooded 3+ acre setting with its own stocked pond, this one-of-a-kind Swansea property offers an exceptional combination of space, character, privacy, and opportunity—all just minutes from everyday conveniences. With dual residential and commercial zoning, this impressive 3,428 sf stucco home provides the flexibility to enjoy a peaceful private retreat, create a distinctive live/work environment, or explore a variety of possibilities. A long, tree-lined drive leads to the home’s dramatic rooflines and welcoming covered entry. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and rustic wood beams immediately set this home apart. Adding an incredible piece of local history, some of the beams were salvaged from Swansea’s former railroad station, now home to LongStory Coffee. The spacious eat-in kitchen features granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range, indoor grill, tile backsplash, built-in wine refrigerator, butcher block island, and a charming bay-window breakfast nook. Multiple dining and gathering spaces provide plenty of room for entertaining, while the inviting family room features a brick, wood-burning fireplace with gas starter for cozy evenings at home. Four spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths include a generously sized primary suite, while the home’s flexible layout provides options for guests, multigenerational living, or dedicated office space. The setting is equally impressive. Step outside to expansive outdoor living areas overlooking mature woods and a private stocked pond alive with fish, turtles, and abundant wildlife. Relax on the multi-level deck, enjoy the picturesque garden, or simply take in the privacy and natural surroundings rarely found this close to town. Exceptional functionality continues with an oversized 3-bay tuck-under garage, abundant additional parking, a detached pole barn/outbuilding ideal for storage, hobbies, or equipment, a dedicated dog run, and an impressive 17x42 basement workshop with separate 100-amp electrical service. For those considering the property’s commercial potential, additional business parking is located at the upper portion of the property with an ADA-compliant path providing access to both entrances. Whether you’re searching for acreage and privacy, room for hobbies and projects, a distinctive home with local history, or the flexibility of a live/work property, this truly unique offering delivers possibilities that are difficult to duplicate. Enjoy the feeling of a secluded country retreat while remaining remarkably close to Swansea shopping, dining, and conveniences. Sale includes two parcels. Parcel one 2.05 acres with 2025 tax of $8193 and owner occupied exemption; Parcel two 1.76 acres with 2025 tax of $1459 and no exemptions.

COMING SOON w/ Showings to begin Thursday 9/10 but you can take the 3D tour today! Welcome home to 204 Wild Cherry Lane, a beautifully updated brick ranch tucked into Rosewood Lake Estates in WOLF BRANCH Schools! With 2,178 square feet all on one level, this beautiful ranch offers the ease of single-level living paired with the kind of thoughtful, top-to-bottom updating that is hard to find. Step inside and the first thing you will notice is the hardwood flooring, which runs through nearly the entire main level. The entry opens to a generous formal dining with room to comfortably seat ten, making holidays and entertaining easy to host. The kitchen is truly the heart of this home. Its 2021 remodel brought granite countertops, freshly painted cabinetry with new hardware, and stainless appliances including a slide-in double-oven range with built-in microwave above, a dishwasher, and disposal. A breakfast bar handles busy mornings and homework sessions, while a separate breakfast area offers a sunny spot for coffee, complete with its own serving bar and built-in storage. Just beyond the kitchen is a dedicated office, currently used as a work-from-home space but offers a lot of flexibility and can be used to fit your specific needs. At the far end of the home, the family room opens up beneath a vaulted ceiling. A fireplace anchors the space with a recessed niche built in above it for a television, and sliding doors lead out to a large new concrete patio, so warm evenings flow easily from inside to out. The peaceful, level backyard is the perfect spot to entertain friends and family. There is also plenty of room to add a pool! The primary suite is a true retreat. The bedroom features hardwood floors and two double closets, and French doors that open into a lovely bath that feels every bit as luxurious as it looks. A new, freestanding soaking tub takes center stage, joined by separate vanities (new tops, faucets, hardware and mirrors), a separate shower with a built-in seat, new vinyl flooring, lighting and new plank wall board. Two additional bedrooms are both nicely sized with hardwood floors and double closets of their own. The hall bathroom serving them has been fully renovated with custom tile work and a doorless walk-in shower that feels elegant and high-end. A main-floor laundry room with extra closet storage sits conveniently between the family room and the garage, with a separate mechanical room alongside it. Six-panel doors and insulated casement windows carry throughout. Outside, the home is predominantly brick with stucco accents, set on a quarter-acre-plus lot with fresh exterior paint and new landscaping rock. The two-car attached garage enters at kitchen level and features a new garage door and opener. Additional updates include repainted interior, new wiring in the kitchen, family room, and dining room, along with updated lighting and ceiling fans throughout. Best of all, there is no HOA. The location delivers, too. This address is served by Wolf Branch School District 113, with Belleville East High School beyond. The Swansea MetroLink station is minutes away with park-and-ride access to downtown St. Louis, the stadium district, and Lambert Airport. Scott Air Force Base is roughly fifteen minutes east, downtown St. Louis about twenty minutes west, and everyday shopping, dining, groceries, parks, and healthcare are all close at hand. Move-in ready, meticulously maintained, and beautifully updated throughout! Schedule your in-person showing today and be prepared to be WOWED from the moment you enter!
