1117 Selma Ave

Hidden away on a quiet street, this house looks just like its neighbors. That thought disappears when you walk in the front door, breathless with your first glimpse of the line of sight through the formal living room and small formal dining area into a mile of kitchen and breakfast room out to the back. Be overwhelmed by the sheer beauty of all those windows, all that light, the great colors and then, as you are drawn into the fabulous kitchen, you see the inviting family room, one step down—open, bright, ceiling fan, Pergo floor, a wall of media center, bookcases, a gas fireplace and more windows. Back to the kitchen—acres of counter space, gorgeous light wood cabinets, a small wine bar, a breakfast bar around 2 sides of the enormous center island, a planning center, Armstrong laminate flooring, down lights, hanging lights, and all those windows. At the back of the house is an elegant full bath featuring a jetted tub/shower and a dual sink vanity. The large, airy master bedroom has a large closet and a ceiling fan. A door leads to a smaller bedroom (with its own entrance to the main hall) which could serve as an office or a sitting room. There’s another slightly larger bedroom and a full bath with tub/shower, a pedestal sink and gorgeous maroon tile. Oversized garage and professionally finished basement with dry bar and rough-in plumbing for a full bath, completely fenced back yard, patio area, elevated, in-ground pool with cover and new filter (2006), new front porch. The Pool IS OPEN, but the owners keep the cover on when they are not actively using it--as a safety precaution, even though the yard is fenced. The cover is very good, and strong. New (professionally built) addition in 12/03, all new plumbing from the ground up, new electrical box and upgraded service, new vinyl windows everywhere but the two girls’ rooms, new furnace, new a/c, attic fan, and you can walk to the Webster Groves Memorial Park and Hixon School!
