Property Description

Rare investment opportunity in the Central West – Academy neighborhood! This architecturally distinct, 3-story historic brick home was beautifully renovated in 2021 with luxury finishes, including a custom kitchen with wine cooler, spa-like primary suite, soaring ceilings, updated systems, and gorgeous wood floors throughout. The property was impacted by the May 2025 St. Louis tornado and is now being sold strictly as-is. The insurance claim has been filed, processed, and fully paid out. While currently in need of renovations, the home remains a valuable opportunity for an investor, rehabber, or buyer with vision. Previously featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, open-concept living, custom cabinetry, and a large back deck for entertaining, this home is ready to be rejuvenated. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Academy neighborhood, just minutes from Forest Park, Delmar, and the vibrant Central Corridor, this area is experiencing active redevelopment with multiple renovations underway nearby. Take this opportunity to own an amazing historic home with loads of potential
