Situated on a quiet, residential stretch, this home offers a level of privacy and outdoor scale that is coveted in Kirkwood. The deep, lush backyard is a true highlight—providing an expansive canvas for gardening, play, or quiet weekend relaxation.
Step inside to find gleaming hardwoods and a sun-drenched floor plan. The expansive living room, anchored by a traditional brick-surround fireplace, flows seamlessly into a formal dining room designed for hosting. The kitchen is equipped with high-end Sub-Zero refrigeration, a gas cooktop, built-in oven and a dedicated Butler’s Pantry with an additional sink—perfect for staging your next gathering. Retreat to the sunroom for a peaceful afternoon or head upstairs to the impressive Primary Suite, featuring a walk-in closet and en-suite bath. Two additional bedrooms—including one with a versatile "hidden" bonus room—and second-floor laundry offer a modern, highly functional layout.
The living space continues in the professionally finished lower level, providing a getaway for work or leisure. This level includes a custom bar area, a quiet private office space, and a full bathroom. With ample dedicated storage and the peaceful atmosphere of an established neighborhood, this home is a rare opportunity to add your personal touch to a high-end foundation in the heart of the Kirkwood school district.
