What's special

Fully finished lower levelBar built for hostingMassive rare-for-the-city backyardTwo bedroomsCustom built-insStainless appliancesSun-filled rooms

Southampton charm meets move-in-ready ease in this updated 1942 brick ranch — and yes, that’s 1,968 total finished sq ft, more space than you’d expect at this price. Gleaming hardwoods and sun-filled rooms up top, a fresh kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances, two bedrooms, and an updated full bath. The fully finished lower level steals the show: custom built-ins, a bar built for hosting, and a second full bath. A bonus office/family room flows to the attached 1-car garage and out to a massive, rare-for-the-city backyard. BRAND-NEW roof AND siding mean the big-ticket items are handled, and St. Louis City occupancy is already complete. All just steps from the Macklind Business District — coffee, dinner, and neighborhood favorites on foot. This is the Southampton one.
