About This Property

Welcome to the quintessential St. Louis Hills ranch—where you get the best of both worlds: the convenience and energy of city living, paired with the kind of safe, close-knit neighborhood charm that’s getting harder and harder to find. Enjoy evening walks to Francis Park for a sunset stroll or outdoor yoga, grabbing a happy-hour cocktail with friends at Rockwell Beer Garden & living in a community where neighbors actually know each other—and yes, will absolutely lend a hand when you’re one egg short of finishing a loaf of banana bread. It’s that rare kind of place where you can be part of a true neighborhood while still being minutes from everything you want and need. Lovingly maintained by the current owners, this home feels welcoming from the moment you pull up and start taking in the Southwest flair sprinkled throughout. Inside, the living room is drenched in natural sunlight (your houseplants are going to be very happy here), with a cozy fireplace that will quickly become your favorite wintertime spot. The formal dining room opens directly to the kitchen, making entertaining easy and everyday living feel effortless. Three bedrooms and a full bathroom are conveniently located on the main level. Head downstairs for even more living space, including a huge rec room, laundry, tons of storage, and a large second full bathroom—perfect for movie nights, hobbies, guests, or simply spreading out. And then there’s the screened-in porch. Prepare to spend approximately 90% of your time here. Peaceful, shady, and surrounded by the large fenced backyard, it feels a little like having your very own private park. Add a 5:00 happy-hour cocktail and a few new neighbor friends gathered on the patio, and honestly… what more could you want? Welcome home to Shangri-la; a place where people still wave from the front porch, friends are just a few houses away, and you can have that cozy neighborhood feeling without giving up the convenience of city life.
