Tucked within the beloved Kirkwood School District, this beautifully updated two-story offers the perfect balance of timeless character, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable central location just minutes from major highways, shopping, dining, and everyday convenience. From the moment you step inside, bamboo hardwood floors create a sense of warmth and continuity throughout much of the main and upper levels, complemented by classic millwork, statement lighting, and inviting, comfortable living spaces. The welcoming entry opens to an elegant dining room accented by crown molding, chair rail, and chandelier, a space made for both everyday dinners and special celebrations. The living room flows effortlessly into the spacious family room, where a wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, wainscoting, and sun-filled bay windows create a space that feels both cozy and connected.

The kitchen is truly the heart of the home, beautifully designed with custom soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, stainless appliances, gas cooktop, double wall ovens, wine fridge, and a large center island that invites connection. A sliding glass door opens directly to the covered deck, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow and extending the living space, perfect for morning coffee, quiet evenings, or hosting with ease. Just beyond, the laundry/mudroom provide everyday practicality and organization. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with hardwood floors, generous closet space including a walk-in closet, and a beautifully updated spa-like bath featuring a walk-in shower, soaking tub, dual vanity, and custom tilework. Three additional bedrooms with hardwood flooring and ample closet space share a well-appointed hall bath. The finished lower level expands the home's versatility with a large recreation space, wet bar, wine fridge, full bath, and a flexible bonus room ideal for guests, a home office, or workout space.
