Property Description
Perched above the Mississippi River with a large double lot yard and rare sightline to the Gateway Arch, this one-of-a-kind 2.5-story home offers a perspective few properties can match. Built circa 1875, it blends historic St. Louis character with a dramatic setting. With 1,830 square feet, 2 bedrooms & 1.5 baths, this is a home that's rich in history, mood, & views.
The main level features spacious living & dining space with tall ceilings, eye-catching woodwork, & impressive decorative fireplace. The kitchen offers an eat-in option in a bay-window nook, center island, plenty of counter space, large pantry, & walks out to covered patio space. Half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, the massive 12 x 27 primary bedroom is anchored by a second decorative fireplace & sitting area + French doors opening to small front balcony with river view. The other bedroom has access to a covered 2nd story deck overlooking side yard. A separate office and full bath completes 2nd floor.
Above it all, the expanded attic offers exceptional potential for future finishing, whether envisioned as an additional bedroom, studio, or private retreat with elevated views. A roof hatch provides access to the flat roof, creating the opportunity for a true rooftop escape. Fenced yard, gated for off-street parking option. New furnace and AC in 2024.
Known for its riverfront setting and elevated vantage points, Marine Villa offers a rare combination of historic homes, and proximity to downtown, Cherokee Street, and major highways—making it both connected and quietly set apart. For those who see home as both shelter and statement - this one's for you.
