Circa 1920, this exceptional Ames Place residence blends timeless architecture with modern comfort in one of University City’s most coveted neighborhoods. Just three blocks from Washington University, Forest Park, and the Loop—and only minutes from downtown Clayton—this home offers a lifestyle defined by convenience, charm, and sophistication. The classic front porch and handsome tile roof set the stage for a warm welcome. Inside, a gracious center hall leads to spacious rooms filled with natural light, hardwood floors, and exquisite architectural details. Stained glass windows, custom built-ins, and an impressive fireplace anchor the living spaces, while a sun-filled sitting room frames views of the gardens. The updated kitchen is a true centerpiece, appointed with granite counters, abundant cabinetry, and luxury appliances designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The second floor offers four well-sized bedrooms, a Jack and Jill bath, a second full bath, and a delightful porch off one of the bedrooms. This level provides the flexibility for family, guests, or work-from-home needs and even allows for an alternate primary suite. The third-floor primary is a private retreat, featuring two walk-in closets, a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, separate shower, dual sinks, and the convenience of an in-suite laundry. The lower level expands living space with a large screening room, dog wash, and half bath—perfect for movie nights, hobbies, and practical everyday use. Energy-efficient upgrades include new custom storm windows, a tankless hot water heater, and zoned heating and cooling, ensuring year-round comfort with modern efficiency. Outdoors, the home invites relaxation and entertaining with a spacious screened porch, flagstone patio, and professionally designed gardens that provide both beauty and privacy. A two-car garage and rebuilt cobblestone pad add practicality, accommodating up to four vehicles with ease. Blending historic character, thoughtful updates, and modern amenities, this Ames Place home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy classic architecture alongside today’s luxuries—all in a location that is second to none.
