About this home
Single Family · Built 1896 · Historic
Who doesn't want a historic mini-castle with a turret? Unique opportunity to purchase and improve a grand old home in St. Louis's rapidly developing Academy neighborhood in the West End. Area comparables support the renovation needed. 3 stories of endless possibilities. Appears to have great bones, much of the original millwork remains, large backyard deck in a nice shady backyard for beating the heat of St. Louis's summertime. **Back on the market through no fault of the seller, buyer failed to close.**
