1923 Clay St, Saint Joseph, MO 64501

This stately 1900 home by architect Edmond Jacque Eckel features 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms and is located on a street with some of St. Joseph's finest architecture on display. The curb appeal is outstanding and you'll feel the quality craftsmanship the moment you walk through the front door. You'll immediately recognize the sellers have maintained this home beautifully. Improvements in recent years include a completely remodeled kitchen and new windows through the entire home, except for the carriage house. In addition, the home was repainted a few years ago and new gutters and gutter guards were installed. The main floor of the home features a beautiful entry area, an office, a TV/sitting room, formal dining, the updated kitchen and a half bath. The second floor is enormous and includes a beautiful sitting area that leads to five bedrooms and three full bathrooms. In addition, there is a beautiful room surrounded by windows that is located directly above the home's breezeway that leads to the two-car attached garage. For historic home lovers who enjoy a project, there are two cosmetic projects ready to be finished. One of the bedrooms is ready to finish and the 333 square foot carriage house above the garage is gutted and ready for new owners to make it their own. The basement includes a gym area that could be used for many different purposes and a room that's currently used as a wine cellar. If the interior isn't enough to draw you in, the character on the outside is gorgeous, including the large covered porch on the east side of the home just off the formal dining room, a newly-added deck at the rear of the home, and a beautiful backyard garden area.
