Century-old character with the big-ticket updates already done. This 1912 one-and-a-half-story home in North Belleville pairs nearly 10-foot ceilings and real architectural charm with the improvements buyers look for: a new architectural shingle roof (2025), HVAC replaced in 2020, a newer gas water heater, updated circuit-breaker electrical, insulated windows, vinyl siding, and a newer steel entry door.
Curb appeal starts with an arched front window and a cantilevered bay. Inside, luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the main level, with new trim and fresh paint. The living room is filled with light from that arched window. A center flex room works as a family room, sitting room, or home office. The main-floor primary bedroom features a vaulted ceiling, the cantilevered bay window, a full-wall double closet, and a plant shelf above it. The full bath sits opposite the primary bedroom, just off the flex room.
At the back of the home, the dining area and kitchen share a freestanding wood-burning stove and exposed beams that give the space genuine character. The kitchen offers an island with overhang seating, a gas range, a built-in microwave, plenty of cabinet space, and a new sliding glass door out to the deck, so morning coffee outside is a few steps away.
Upstairs, the second bedroom is a spacious finished attic room with a ceiling close to 9 feet at the center, a walk-in closet, and extra storage tucked under the eaves.
Outside, the deep, fully fenced backyard has a deck that steps down to a patio, with plenty of room to garden, play, or entertain. The single drive widens to two lanes behind the house, leaving room to add a garage or carport. The unfinished basement provides laundry hookups, a utility sink, a sump pump, storage, and its own exterior entry.
The location is hard to beat for commuters. The Belleville MetroLink station is a short walk away, with Red Line service to Scott AFB, downtown St. Louis, and Lambert Airport. Downtown Belleville's Main Street shops, restaurants, and Public Square festivals are about a mile away. Belleville District 118 and Belleville East High School. No HOA.
