7030 Amherst Ave

Welcome to 7030 Amherst Ave, a thoughtfully maintained and versatile 2-family property offering the rare opportunity to blend homeownership with income in one of the most sought-after pockets near Clayton and Washington University. Each unit features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath with spacious, functional layouts, abundant natural light, and timeless character throughout. The lower unit is currently owner-occupied, creating an ideal setup for a buyer looking to move right in while generating immediate income from the upper unit, which is currently leased month-to-month at $1,300. With market rents in the area supporting approximately $1,500+ per unit, there is clear upside for increased income, making this an exceptional long-term hold or strategic house hack. The owner is even renting his extra bedroom to a colleague for $700/ month. Whether you choose to occupy one unit or lease both, the flexibility of this property allows you to tailor it to your lifestyle and financial goals. Set on a charming residential street in University City, just minutes from Clayton, Washington University, Forest Park, and some of St. Louis’ best dining and entertainment, this location continues to see strong demand from both tenants and owner-occupants alike. Opportunities like this, where location, lifestyle, and income align, are increasingly rare.
