Life can be easy peasy lemon squeezy when you live here. Set on a picture-perfect Lindenwood Park lot, you're greeted with quiet confidence and a private driveway that means you glide right in — no circling or searching required. This isn't just curb appeal and convenience it's the kind of first impression that makes you want to see everything else. Step through the front door and the open floor plan does the talking: the living room's hardwood floors and natural lighting spill straight into the eat-in kitchen without a wall in sight, so morning coffee, dinner prep, and everybody's conversation all happen in the same easy stretch of space. That kitchen pulls its weight, too — oak cabinetry, granite-style counters, tile floors and backsplash, and a full appliance lineup (gas range, fridge, microwave, dishwasher) with room enough for a real dining table not a bistro set for two, but the kind of table where everyone can gather and memories are made. The bathroom skips the cookie-cutter renovation, highlighting brass fixtures and a tiled tub-shower surround, the kind of detail that ages like character instead of clutter. Two bedrooms round out the main floor, each with real closet space and hardwood floors built to shrug off daily life. Head downstairs and the full basement is a blank canvas unfinished, unclaimed, and entirely up to you. Storage today, a rec room, home gym, or workshop tomorrow; the square footage is already there waiting. Out back, a fenced yard with a shed gives you storage without sacrificing space, plus a private patio made for grilling, evening wind-downs, or the kind of nothing-in-particular you can only do outside your own back door. And the neighborhood does some of the selling itself. Lindenwood Park is walkable, with sidewalks lining both sides of the street, home to its namesake 14-acre park with trails, tennis courts, ball fields, and a roller rink, and just minutes from The Hill's legendary Italian food, Forest Park, downtown St. Louis, and Clayton. Homes here don't sit long, and homes with this kind of history in the same family for generations rarely come up at all. Come see what you'll add to it! to be sold "as-is" with passed municipal inspection in place

Showings begin Thursday September 10. Welcome to one of the best pieces of Lindenwood Park. This brick and stone story and a half beauty has been wonderfully cared for and updated. Walk into the entry way that opens to the nice sized living room with stone mantle - fireplace surround and adjacent dining room, both with gorgeous wood floors. These spaces are enhanced with arched doorways and custom stained glass windows. The eclectic kitchen opens out onto an enclosed porch, which overlooks the gorgeous gardens and patio in the rear. The current owner finished out the second floor attic space to add two additional bedrooms, which are not included in the tax records. The knotty pine, wood floors, and expansive storage are just a taste of what is offered on the new second floor. These rooms are heated and cooled with mini split systems, making the temperature control a great individual piece for each space. In addition the rear yard and patio space is fully fenced and enhanced with beautiful lighting, plus the patio space doubles as a two car, enclosed parking pad, if one so chooses. This beauty offers easy access to public transportation, local dining and beautiful parks. Home is city code compliant for occupancy.
