About this home
Welcome to 5654 Leona Street, a captivating residence that perfectly captures the timeless soul of South St. Louis while offering a lifestyle of modern ease. Nestled in a prime location that bridges the gap between historic Holly Hills and the vibrant energy of Bevo, this home is a rare find for the buyer who refuses to compromise on character or location.
Imagine a life where your morning coffee is followed by a breezy stroll to one of the city’s most iconic green spaces. Just steps from your front door lies Carondelet Park, a sprawling 180-acre urban oasis. Having this crown jewel as your "extended backyard" is a luxury few can claim.
Talk about convenience! Directly across the street, the new Leona Market has transformed the neighborhood. Gone are the days of the stressful weekly grocery haul; here, fresh ingredients, and daily essentials are just a 30-second walk away. This hyper-local convenience truly redefines what it means to live in a walkable community.
While many historic homes in the area can feel cramped, Leona offers an abundance of space and a highly functional layout. This impressive residence features 4 spacious bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms, providing a level of privacy and convenience that is incredibly hard to find in South City. Whether you are hosting guests, accommodating a growing family, or creating the ultimate home office suite, this property has the "elbow room" you've been searching for.
Adding to the home’s rich character are two stunning fireplaces. These architectural focal points serve as the heart of the home, offering a cozy ambiance for chilly St. Louis winters and a touch of timeless elegance for your evening gatherings. You can also relax or entertain outside in the backyard on your covered screened in porch and did I mention that this home has a detached TWO car garage?
The most intriguing feature of 5654 Leona is what lies beyond the official paper trail. While public records provide a baseline for the home’s size, they fail to account for the true heart of the house. The previous MLS data indicates that the home is significantly larger than the listed square footage on the tax records suggest. A substantial addition was made to the upper level, creating an expansive footprint that must be seen to be fully appreciated. While exact measurements aren't currently available, the sheer volume of the second floor offers a versatility that is rare for the area. Whether you envision a massive primary sanctuary, a multi-room home office suite, or a vibrant playroom, the "bonus" square footage here provides the breathing room your family needs without the cramped feel of a standard historic floor plan.
Inside, the home radiates the sturdy, high-quality craftsmanship that St. Louis is famous for. You are greeted by warm textures, inviting light, and an architectural flow that makes entertaining a breeze. The living spaces are designed to be both cozy for quiet nights and open enough for lively gatherings.
Beyond your doorstep, you are immersed in a neighborhood known for its community spirit and architectural beauty. With easy access to major highways, the famous Bevo Mill, and an array of celebrated local eateries, you are perfectly positioned to enjoy the very best of the city.
