    What's special

    New cedar fenceDouble lotQuiet one-way streetRetains many original detailsRetaining wall
    Rare opportunity to rent a historic home on a quiet one-way street in one of the best neighborhoods in the city with walking distant to all that Lafayette Square has to offer. House is across the street from Lafayette Square's popular restaurants, cafes and boutique shops, and is steps away from Lafayette Park. This unique home sits on a double lot with a front and back yard garden and a rare 2 car garage. The home dates back to the original development of the neighborhood and survived the 1896 Great Cyclone. It has been renovated multiple times throughout the years but retains many original details. A first floor master bedroom suite was added to the home in the mid 2000's. The suite includes two closets, a laundry room with washer and dryer, and french doors to a private walled outside seating area. The master bathroom was completely remodeled again in 2017 with a walk-in shower. The kitchen was replaced around 10 years ago and includes contemporary white cabinets and stainless steel appliances - including dishwasher. Other 2017 renovations include two large covered cedar porches, a new cedar fence, concrete walkways, patio, retaining wall and landscaping. The first floor porch connects to the kitchen and is fully screened - so no more mosquito bites while you are enjoying dinner or a cocktail outside. Second floor porch connects to 2nd bedroom/office. There is a full basement with unusually high 9 foot ceilings and a slate floor in the front room. This is a one-of-a-kind historic and charming home with many modern conveniences. Lease term can be 12 or 24 months. House is available starting October 15, 2026. Available for showing starting September 1. Lease options include 12 months or 24 months. Additional $3300 security deposit and $25 per month pet fee (for one dog or one cat). Includes use of 2 car garage. Additional free parking is directly in front on a quiet one-way street. Simply Safe Security System is provided but monitoring is not included in rent. (Optional Monitoring Cost paid to Simply Safe) This is a no smoking property. Lawn and garden maintenance is responsibility of tenant but this is negotiable. Tenant pays for utilities including Ameren Electric, Spire Gas, Fiber Broadband and/or cable, Water & Trash Pickup, and MSD (Sewer bill).
