Hey history buffs! So, you think you know your kindergarten facts? Well, let me blow your mind (pun intended) - it was actually invented by Susan Blow from St. Louis! And, fun fact, her family lived in Carondelet, which is why we have a Blow Street and a Lyons-Blow school (mind. blown.). They built this gorgeous home for Susan's sis, Nellie, to lure her back to St. Louis with her hubby, Count DeSmirnoff of Russia (casual, right?). Fast forward 157 years, and this historic home has been totally revamped for the modern era! The curb appeal beckons you up onto the covered front porch where you can sit and watch the world go by! Large entrance foyer leads you into nearly 2000 sq ft of living with the living room  to your left complete with cherry hardwoods, two sets of French doors to the porch, high ceilings, new fixture, fresh paint and crown molding. The entertaining continues into your dining room -- the site of your legendary soon-to-be dinner parties with more high ceilings, cherry hardwoods, fresh paint and crown molding. The kitchen allows your inner chef to emerge as they will love the tons of white cabinets, the miles of butcher block counters, the deluxe SS appliances, the new flooring, fresh paint and the handy breakfast bar overlooking the breakfast room. Sliders lead out to the deck, perfect for alfresco dining. No more lugging laundry down into creepy basements here as the laundry is conveniently located on the main floor along with a full bathroom. The 2nd floor bedrooms all have new carpeting, fresh paint and are great sizes. The primary bedroom in front has tons of natural light AND an attached vaulted sitting room (what a great flex space). A fully updated guest bathroom rounds out this floor. The fenced and level backyard is just what Fido and the kiddos want -- along with a large patio and deck area for grilling and chilling! This home is close to food (Stacked will become your favorite resturant, along with Sugarwitch for desserts), folks AND fun (Carondelet Living has you covered with tons of summer concerts). Now all that is missing here is YOU!
