Gracing one of the largest lots in the storied University City enclave of University Heights and near the “Gates of Opportunity” commissioned by city founder E.G. Lewis, this three bedroom, three full, two half bathroom home is a quiet, sophisticated sanctuary that also provides close proximity to the vibrant Delmar “Loop” and Washington University. Elegant hardwood floors and window-lined walls grace the main floor spaces, including a living room with gorgeous fireplace, a formal dining room, and an elaborate chef’s kitchen equipped with high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, and a spacious center island.
