This home is in the northwest quadrant of Lafayette Square and has seen substantial renovations of the historic homes. The home is located very close to Park Avenue and the historic Lafayette Square Park that offers so much to the community. This all brick home was built in 1870 and has gone thru many renovations over the years. One of the major renovations that was added is a primary bedroom suite that includes a large bathroom, plus a washer/dryer to the first floor. When adding the addition, the electric service was placed underground. Also, the electricity was upgraded to 200 amp. The second floor has two bedrooms, an office and full bathroom. The home has three fireplaces. Also, if your requirements are also being made aware of the availability of the school system, the Square is blessed to have Lafayette Prep, a charter school. Being in one of the best historic neighborhoods in the country, the Square does have a very strong code that is adhered to and changes to the exterior must be approved by the neighborhood code committee as well as the City of St. Louis. A major plus is that there is a side lot that offers the potential of a new home being built or enjoying the privacy that it currently offers. The lot backs up to a fence that has a sliding gate entrance that opens to the alley for convenient parking for two cars.
