Description
Nestled on more than 3 acres along a quiet bluff above the Meramec River, this stunning custom-built farmhouse-style home offers the perfect blend of charm, space, and serenity. With 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, this is the retreat you've been waiting for. Setting the tone for this one-of-a-kind property, is a covered porch running the full width of the home, offering a warm and welcoming greeting for family and friends. Inside, the entry foyer draws you in with gleaming hardwood floors that flow throughout the entire first floor. To the left, a generous dining room is ready for both formal entertaining and everyday gatherings, while a cozy living room to the right offers an ideal space for quiet conversation or a home office. The beautifully updated kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring solid surface counters, custom cabinetry, an electric cooktop, double ovens, and a breakfast bar. A large window offers views of the charming covered side porch and garden below. The breakfast room flows naturally into the home's true crown jewel -- a 41' x 10' screened-in porch, perfect for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings.
The two-story family room is anchored by a wood-burning, see-through fireplace with a beautiful stone surround. Soaring vaulted ceilings and a dramatic wall of windows flood the space with natural light, while French doors open directly onto the screened-in porch -- seamlessly blending indoor comfort with outdoor beauty. The primary suite features a bay window with door to screened in porch, and an ensuite with double sinks, a soaking tub, separate shower, and a large walk-in closet. A powder room and a spacious laundry/mudroom perfectly round out the first floor.
Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms with an abundance of natural light share a hall bath. The walk-out lower level offers flexibility with a large rec room, workshop, and sleeping area or office, and a full bath -- all opening to a patio that's just waiting for a firepit and a starlit evening.
And just when you think you've seen it all -- tucked off the laundry room, a private staircase leads to a spectacular 16' x 26' bonus space complete with skylights, book shelves, and a closet. Whether you envision an artist's loft, a yoga studio, a home office, or a fourth bedroom, the possibilities are endless.
Finally, if you're a golfer, you're within 5 miles of Aberdeen, Crescent Farms and Pevely Farms golf courses. Minutes from highway 44, close to dining and shopping, and award winning Rockwood schools. This is more than a home. It's a lifestyle.
