Set behind a circular drive and framed by stately columns, this impressive all-brick Creve Coeur estate makes a memorable first impression. Set on just over an acre, the property offers the rare combination of expansive living space, timeless architecture and a remarkably private, tree-lined setting—yet remains conveniently close to major highways, hospitals, shopping, restaurants and some of St. Louis’ most sought-after amenities, including Bellerive Country Club. From the moment you arrive, the home feels more like a private estate than a typical suburban residence.
Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer with a grand staircase sets the tone for the scale and elegance found throughout.
Newly installed light hardwood flooring flows into the spacious great room, where a brick wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, recessed lighting and crown molding create a warm and sophisticated gathering space. A wet bar just off the foyer is outfitted with a new wine/beverage cooler and adds an inviting touch for entertaining. The open design continues into the kitchen and breakfast room.
The kitchen features rich cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island, breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances including a built-in refrigerator, tile backsplash and under-cabinet lighting. The adjoining breakfast room features a second brick fireplace and a staircase leading to the bedroom level. French doors open to the main-level primary suite, offering dual walk-in closets, crown molding and recessed lighting, along with a luxurious bath featuring a jetted tub, separate shower, dual sinks and seated vanity area. The suite also provides access to a private office, which is additionally accessible from the hallway.
A formal dining room with wainscoting and crown molding, two powder rooms and a spacious laundry room complete the main level.
Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms each feature their own private ensuite bath, creating exceptional comfort and privacy for family and guests. At the center of the bedroom level, a spacious loft-style living area provides flexible space for gaming, relaxing or gathering. A separate bonus room offers even more versatility as an office, guest space or additional living area. A secondary staircase leads to a third-level bonus room—a tucked-away space ready to become a home office, exercise room, playroom or whatever best fits your lifestyle.
The finished walkout lower level expands the possibilities even further, with a large recreation room, full bar and kitchen complete with dishwasher, oven, microwave, ice maker and sink. There is ample room to create dedicated areas for billiards or poker, dining, gaming and entertaining, plus a full bath and another flexible bonus room ideal for exercise, office or guest space. A slider opens directly to the backyard patio and private pool area.
Outside, the setting is truly special. Mature trees surround the property, creating a secluded, shaded backdrop that makes the backyard feel like a hidden oasis. The fenced in-ground pool, equipped with a new heater, provides a private retreat for summer days and entertaining. A composite deck overlooks the wooded backyard, while the three-car rear-entry garage provides generous parking and storage. A roof less than five years old adds to the home's appeal.
With its stately presence, designer-inspired interiors, exceptional craftsmanship, expansive flexible living spaces and rare sense of privacy, this Creve Coeur estate offers a remarkable lifestyle in a location that puts virtually everything St. Louis has to offer within easy reach.
