Welcome to the best kept secret in the City of St Louis! Lookaway Drive, a beautiful 1930s executive enclave overlooking the Mississippi River, at the city's far northern boundary! Enjoy a rare opportunity to buy here, with this exquisite Colonial-style home that has been lovingly maintained by the same family for 36 years! Built by architect Walter Manske, who designed many iconic local buildings, this large 2-story features luminous original woodwork, a gorgeous staircase, vintage tile bathrooms, exposed brick, a gas fireplace, and TWO decks.....including one with a river view in the winter! The rooms are spacious, with updated windows & wonderful natural light, and the yard is fenced, flat & nearly a HALF ACRE! Other updates include roof (slate/TPO), water heater, copper water lines, glass block windows & 200amp electric. A very similar home by the same architect recently sold in Clayton for over $800k, so this is quite a deal! Great shape but sold AS-IS. Special financing possible.
