Need to house a crowd and willing to add sweat equity? This is a great space, over 1900sf, in a stately old brick home with five bedrooms and two full baths. The hardest, mostly unseen, work is completed cleanly - new electrical panels and wiring, plumbing, hot water heater, drywall as needed, and some new windows.

It is cleared and ready for someone to add HVAC systems (new set up in place), finish baths and kitchen, pick your paint, and make it pretty again. Original hardwood floors and beautiful old wood trim are present in most rooms. Beautiful covered brick front porch is large enough to add a couple of chairs on the vintage tiled space to watch the world go by.

A large front door opens to a spacious center entry foyer on the main floor. Large columns flank the wide opening to the living room where a mirrored fireplace mantel highlights the intact beautiful vintage tile surround. Opposite that room, pocket doors open to expose another large room, this one with another mirror mantel and brick fireplace.

The kitchen is large with canned lights installed in the new ceiling. It does require all cabinetry and finishes. A large back room, also separated by pocket doors, serves as a main floor bedroom. (There are five doorways serviced by pocket doors!) Bathroom has new tub, only.

Lots of windows pour light into all of these spaces. From the kitchen, climb the staircase to the 2nd floor to find four bedrooms which share a hall bathroom, set with shower area. Some rooms have dormer areas or angled walls adding little cubbies and architectural interest.

Again, windows keeps the rooms light and bright. The back porch leads to a large and level yard, fenced. Laundry hookup in basement. The home is cross-listed as a two family duplex. Listing #26066264 Great location is just a couple blocks from the Costco Business Center at Hwy 170 at St Charles Rock Rd, and convenient to the airport, and highways.
