Tucked against a backdrop of mature trees in the heart of Ballwin, this home offers the kind of everyday retreat most people only dream about. Imagine starting your morning with coffee on the deck, surrounded by peaceful wooded views, yet knowing you’re just minutes from everything Ballwin has to offer. Step inside and natural light pours through generous windows with custom blinds, highlighting the updated luxury vinyl plank flooring and welcoming spaces designed for both gathering and quiet moments. The main level flows beautifully from the formal living and dining rooms ready for holidays and celebrations, to the cozy family room with bay windows framing the private backyard. At the heart of the home, the updated kitchen is where life happens. With abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a bright breakfast area, it’s perfectly designed for weeknight dinners, Saturday baking, and entertaining friends with ease. A convenient powder room and laundry/mud room add everyday functionality. Upstairs, the spacious owner’s retreat feels like a private sanctuary, complete with a walk-in closet and ensuite bath with separate tub and shower. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath provide room for family, guests, or hobbies. The finished walk out lower level expands your possibilities even further, offering a fifth bedroom, full bath, exercise room or office, and additional living space. It's ideal for movie nights, guests, or multigenerational living. And beyond the beauty, this home delivers true peace of mind. With a new roof, new carpet, new water heater, new windows and a whole-home natural gas generator, the major updates are already done and offer comfort, reliability, and practicality for years to come. The backyard is a showpiece, backing to woods with an oversized deck and patio that’s perfect for summer barbecues, evening gatherings under the stars, or simply unwinding in total privacy. This isn’t just a house, it’s a home that blends serenity, space, and smart investment all in one.
