About this home
You'd almost miss this one as you stroll one of the most intriguing blocks in STL's historic Benton Park neighborhood. The only hint of magic from the street is a custom double-door hiding in plain sight on a block replete with sweet gardens, architectural details and artistic elements. But turn this knob and find an antique brick, wood and glass box carefully dismantled, then reassembled with creativity, elegance, great flow, remarkable craftsmanship and a contemporary eye. First, the atrium; truly stunning as it expands up 3 stories to skylights that flood all levels of the home in natural light. To the left, choose one of 3 french-doored entrances to the living/dining room fashioned as an open "studio" on a foundation of heart-of-pine floors and a surprising view to the level below; a perfectly gracious space for family or guests. Just past the powder room enter the large and remarkably functional galley kitchen plus breakfast nook that overlooks the outdoors. Up a stairwell meticulously assembled from reclaimed antique floor joists, find a second level that is as smart as it is fresh in it's approach to form and function. This is where a generous hall laundry, a full bath, a second bedroom and the primary suite are laid out. The sun-filled primary unfolds into an open-planned large closet, dual sink vanity, and freshly installed walk-in shower that's designed for catching morning light. On the top level the 3rd and 4th bedrooms are tucked across from another bath, and an open office acts as the crow's nest overlooking it all. Downstairs an incredible lower-level defies the term "basement" with a 3rd full bath, reclaimed marble floors and custom mosaic work. Billiards, wood burning stove, and hand-built bar, anyone? Out back discover the totally private oversized garage/carport and a secret shade garden with winding brick pathways, long-established perennials and an elegant redbud that may be as old as the house itself. All the practical items have been taken care of; the seller is supplying both the municipal occupancy permit and a one-year home warranty.  The radon has been tested, and even some of the to-the-tee furnishings are available. All that's left for you to do is fall deeply in love. Did I mention the custom neon artwork that's hard-wired, and glowing at the heart of it all?...
