Always talked about living in Soulard but figured it was out of budget? Not this one. This 2-family is basically a stumble home from McGurk’s, Molly’s & Tucker’s—aka prime Soulard territory. And the best part? It’s the ultimate first-time buyer move: live in one unit while your tenant upstairs helps pay your mortgage. That’s what we call working smarter, not harder. The building was renovated in the ‘90s, so the big-ticket stuff is already solid. The first-floor unit is vacant and move-in ready, while the upstairs unit is already rented—meaning income starts rolling in on day one. Each apartment has a spacious living room & dining area, two bedrooms, a full bath, in-unit laundry & some fun retro 90’s kitchen vibes. Everything’s clean, fresh, and totally livable as-is, but there’s also easy upside if you want to level it up with simple cosmetic updates like new flooring or lighting to boost future rents. Plus: fenced backyard + patio for grilling, beers with friends, or watching the game outside this fall. Skip the endless Zillow scrolling and hit me--the listing agent--up directly for details or a tour. This is the kind of starter property that can actually set you up financially while letting you live right in the middle of the action.
