About this home

Character, charm and convenience abound in this lovely century home in University City's highly sought-after Ames Place neighborhood. Ideally situated in the coveted heart of U. City, just across from Washington University and within easy walking distance of Forest Park, MetroLink, and an array of popular restaurants and shops, this home offers an exceptional combination of location and livability. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths and 1,772 square feet, the home showcases refinished hardwood floors throughout. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace, handsome brick hearth and mantle, and charming lookout windows. A spacious, light-filled dining room provides the perfect setting for entertaining, while the adjoining kitchen and updated powder room add everyday functionality. Upstairs, three bedrooms share a full bath and offer an opportunity to personalize and make the space your own. Numerous important updates provide peace of mind, including a newer roof, replaced boiler, water heater, AC/heat pump and 100-amp electrical service, along with a relined sewer lateral and newly renovated front and back porches. Additional potential awaits in the walkout basement, where a half bath has been roughed in. A detached one-car garage, also with a newer roof, completes the package. Located near highly regarded Flynn Park Elementary and in one of University City's most desirable neighborhoods, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the charm of an established century home with the benefit of significant improvements and an unbeatable location.
