Welcome to this Barrett Brae gem, nestled in one of St. Louis’s premier mid-century neighborhoods, where homes reflect the timeless influence of Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired architecture. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special property in a neighborhood recognized by the Kirkwood Landmarks Commission and Architectural Review Board as a historic area of distinction. From the moment you arrive, the home’s thoughtful mid-century modern design is on full display. Exterior highlights include newer entry and garage doors with clean, linear detailing, a glass sidelight, complementary lighting, floating pavers set in stone, and a custom-built cedar privacy fence. The front porch offers the perfect place to relax, enjoy the landscaping, and sip your morning coffee. Inside, the entry welcomes you with a mid-century modern-inspired cable stair railing and open views to both levels of the home. The lower level impresses with its open floor plan, seamless flow, and Japanese seagrass laminate flooring. A trio of extra-wide Pella sliding glass doors along the back of the home fills the space with abundant natural light and connects the indoors to the natural beauty outside. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace with a painted brick surround, flanked by built-ins perfect for displaying books, art, and treasured collections.
The spacious dining room easily accommodates a large table for gatherings and entertaining. In the kitchen, you’ll find stainless steel appliances, including a five-burner gas range, custom white cabinetry with frosted glass accents, modern tile, quartz countertops, a breakfast bar with seating and access to the side yard. Storage is exceptional, with two double-wide closets, including a pantry, both featuring frosted glass doors in keeping with the home’s design aesthetic.
Also on the main level is an updated full bath with a walk-in shower, a laundry closet with washer and dryer included, and a carpeted bonus room ideal for a home office, gym, or guest bedroom. Upstairs, you’ll find a cozy family room, a spacious primary bedroom with a large walk-in closet and a vanity niche illuminated by natural light, plus two additional bedrooms with generous closet space. A beautifully updated bathroom features a double vanity, hexagonal tile flooring, and a spa-like wet room with a custom shower and large soaking tub. Additional features include wood flooring, neutral decor, and ceiling fans in all bedrooms. The oversized front driveway leads to a two-car garage with an attached storage room, while two additional outdoor sheds provide even more storage space. Set on a spectacular .53-acre lot, the property offers rear fencing and backs to trees, the MO Pacific RR and the open fairway of hole #4 of the Greenbriar Hills Country Club. The expansive patio provides ample room for lounging and entertaining, with beautiful views surrounded by nature.
An extensive list of updates is available in the attachment and includes the roof, gutters, 200-amp overhead electrical service, and chimney flue restoration. Located in the highly rated Kirkwood School District, which has earned an A+ grade from Niche and is consistently ranked among the best school districts in Missouri, this home is also just minutes from shopping, dining, and easy access to I-270, I-44, I-40, and Route 121. A must-see home that truly will not disappoint.
