Bungalow

A RARE two-home wooded estate—17 m/l private acres with immediate Jeffco Blvd access, just north of Pevely. Located at 8147 & 8151 Murphy Lane, this two-house secluded homestead spans 16.88 private acres-quiet, secluded, and only minutes from I-55 for a 30 min commute into St. Louis city. A private gravel road leads to the main residence, a solid 4-bedroom 1924 home with a blend of original charm and practical updates. The main home features original hardwood floors, custom built-ins, and generous storage-including a large walk-in pantry. The layout includes multiple cozy nooks, flexible-use rooms, a wood-burning fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a massive storm/storage cellar. [Major recent improvements include brand-new full siding and wrapping, a 1-year-old roof, updated stainless appliances, and a newly remodeled bathroom with a Kohler LuxStone shower and deep soaking tub.] A circle drive leads to the fully remodeled guest house, positioned out of view for privacy. This second home is a spacious 1-bedroom with updated finishes-ideal for guests, rental income, or multi-generational living. Additional features include an attached carport, a walk-in pantry, and a front porch overlooking a well-traveled deer trail. Both homes operate on independent well and septic systems, keeping dependence on public utilities to a minimum. The land itself is the heart of this homestead: mature oak, hickory, and walnut trees cover the ridge, along with blackberry patches, abundant deer and turkey, and a spring-fed creek capping the northern border. Outbuildings include a 50x30 metal barn/workshop with a 12' lean-to, a detached 2-car garage, a hobby/clubhouse with its own deck, a chicken coop, goat house, multiple lean-tos, garden areas, and fire pits. This unique property offers a hard-to-find blend of complete privacy, quick access to city conveniences, true self-sufficient potential, and a quiet retreat from the demands of modern life.
