For those with an appreciation for beautifully preserved historic homes, treat yourself. Architect Ernest Klipstein built this home for his family in 1908, and the current owners have been excellent stewards of his work for the past 34 years. From the leaded glass windows of the conservatory, to the rarely seen antique shower fixtures, this home exudes nostalgia and graciousness. Box beam ceilings, pocket doors, oak floors, stained glass, antique lighting, and four fireplaces give you a sense of luxury and old world quality. Enjoy the benefits of a newer roof on the home (tile) and garage, updated electric and plumbing, newer zoned air conditioning, in-ground sprinkler, and security system. Two car garage is easily accessible by a driveway and opens onto lovely fenced garden and deck. Four blocks from the Metrolink, Forest Park and Washington University and a half block from the Delmar Loop. See why this address has a “Very Walkable” score (86) and a “Very Bikeable” score (82).

This home has a point of view! Wrapped in natural stone and dramatic charcoal siding with oversized black-framed windows, this home's architectural silhouette feels almost like a modern mountain retreat rather than a city residence. It makes an impression before you even walk through the door. Inside, the mood shifts effortlessly. Warm wood floors temper crisp contemporary lines, while a striking glass-enclosed staircase becomes an architectural feature of its own. Open staircases to both the upper and lower levels extend sightlines from floor to floor, creating a sense of volume, connection, and light — giving the home a decidedly unexpected edge. The main level brings the living room, kitchen, and dining room together in one beautifully connected space, filled with natural light. At the center, an oversized rich blue island anchors the kitchen, surrounded by tailored cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances. There's plenty of room to gather at the island, while the adjacent dining area is bright, spacious, and ready for hosting. There’s also a perfect city-sized backyard and patio with a privacy fence. Upstairs, you’ll find the bright and spacious primary suite featuring double closets, a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower, clerestory window, pocket door, and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms, a full hall bath with tub, and second-floor laundry complete the level. Don’t forget to make your way down to the lower level—which hardly feels like a basement at all. With 9-foot ceilings, more natural light, an egress window, and plumbing already in place for an additional bath, it's ready to become whatever you envision. Thoughtfully curated finishes throughout this special home create a sophisticated, warm aesthetic in one of the area's most dynamic neighborhoods, known for its thriving restaurant scene and convenient lifestyle amenities within walking distance. You’re a quick stroll or bike ride from St. Louis’ greatest parks and the Missouri Botanical Garden, with BJC, WashU, and SLU medical campuses just minutes away. Brand new sidewalks and bike paths await your adventures! A two-car garage adds another layer of convenience, although with this location, you may find yourself walking or biking more often than driving. Hurry and come see this unique beauty!

Open Sun, 9/13, 1-3pm. Few addresses in St. Louis offer what Maryland Avenue delivers. Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of the Central West End, 4215 Maryland puts you steps from the restaurants, coffee shops, and energy that make this one of the city's most coveted neighborhoods, while the street itself stays calm and residential. Forest Park is minutes away. The Cathedral Basilica frames your rooftop view. This is the kind of location people wait years to land. The home makes an impression the moment you walk in. A grand staircase with ornate millwork, a stunning original fireplace with intricate carved surround, and rich dark hardwood floors set the tone for what this 1901 home is all about: character you simply cannot replicate. The formal living and dining rooms are genuinely generous, with the dining room easily seating twelve, and the updated kitchen delivers everything you need for modern daily life, including granite countertops, a stone-clad island with seating, stainless appliances, and a mosaic tile backsplash. The layout flows effortlessly from front to back. Upstairs, the primary suite features beautiful bay windows, dark hardwood floors, and a completely renovated en suite bath with a soaking tub, double vanity, and stone tile surround that feels straight out of a boutique hotel. Second-floor laundry adds the everyday convenience you expect from a move-in ready home. The additional bedrooms are all well-sized, including a third-floor suite with the charming roofline character that makes older CWE homes so special. The finished lower level adds serious bonus space, whether you want a rec room, home gym, additional storage, or all three. Out back, a fully fenced private yard and detached garage round out a package that checks every box. Nothing to update, nothing to finish. Just move in and start living the CWE life.

Original pocket doors connect the living and dining rooms, while the dining room has its own fireplace and a curved bay of windows. The freshly painted kitchen opens directly to the rear patio, and a marble-clad powder room completes the main level. A striking curved bay of original stained glass illuminates the grand staircase. Above, a ceiling mural by local artist Mark Sova draws on historic Bradbury & Bradbury designs.
