Extraordinary and unique South city property for sale only the second time in over 100 years. Tranquil 1/2 acre city property with updated antebellum farmhouse. Fully-fenced, park-like backyard, four garages, oodles of off street parking, plus numerous outbuildings for storage and workshops. Very gracious but unassuming home. Fully reworked from bottom to top in 1991, and well cared for. Full bath (shower) and laundry room on the first floor. Full bath and wee half bath on second floor. Not likely a fancy place to begin with, it is now utterly bereft of historical detail other than the original banister and the height of the ceilings. Current owners have eliminated all the carpeting and created durable, cleanable floors throughout. Excellent location for commuting within the city, or for scooting north or south on 55 or out 44. Make this urban retreat yours! A HWA home warranty will be provided for the buyer.

There are lofts that check the boxes, and then there are lofts that remind you why people fall in love with downtown living in the first place. This corner residence at Printers Lofts brings together the best parts of the St. Louis loft experience: historic character, natural light, modern convenience, garage parking, and a building community that actually feels like a community. Inside, the space is defined by soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and an extraordinary wall of 14 oversized 8-foot windows that wrap the corner and fill the loft with light. Fully automated custom blinds make the space easy to live in throughout the day, whether you want bright morning energy, filtered afternoon light, or a quieter evening feel. The open layout works beautifully for both daily living and entertaining. The kitchen is a standout, with paneled KitchenAid and Bosch stainless steel appliances, contemporary cabinetry, and a generous center island that naturally becomes the gathering place — for coffee, dinner prep, or friends stopping by before a night out downtown. The bedroom area is thoughtfully positioned for privacy and includes generous closet space, while the modern bathroom has a clean, refined feel with smart touches like occupancy-sensing, no-touch lighting. The in-unit laundry area includes the same hands-free lighting, adding one of those small conveniences you appreciate more every time you use it. The loft is also well equipped for how people actually live now, with a smart thermostat, keyless Yale entry, and available gigabit fiber internet for remote work, streaming, and everyday connectivity. An assigned space in the heated, secure garage is included, along with secure building entry and a transferable Hoffman Bros maintenance plan for added peace of mind. Printers Lofts spans two sister buildings at 1611 and 1627 Locust, connected by a shared underground garage. This residence is located in 1627, home to the furnished rooftop deck with grills, comfortable seating, and wide-open sunset views over the St. Louis skyline. Residents also enjoy access to 1611’s second-floor community room and fitness center, giving the building shared amenity space that is genuinely useful, not just decorative. What makes Printers Lofts especially compelling is the balance: historic architecture without giving up comfort, a downtown location without sacrificing parking, and an established HOA with a welcoming residential feel. From here, Washington Avenue restaurants, coffee shops, nightlife, CityPark, Enterprise Center, and the broader downtown neighborhood are all part of daily life rather than occasional destinations. For buyers looking for a true downtown loft — not just an apartment with brick walls, but a home with light, presence, convenience, and a real sense of place — this one deserves a closer look.

Some homes are about square footage. This one is about how you'll spend your days. Wake up in the heart of historic Skinker-DeBaliviere, grab coffee around the corner, stroll to the Delmar Loop for brunch, or take a morning walk through Forest Park before work. Whether you're commuting to Washington University, BJC, Cortex, or downtown St. Louis, you'll spend less time in traffic and more time enjoying one of the city's most walkable neighborhoods. Inside, timeless architecture meets everyday convenience. Rich hardwood floors, original millwork, and French doors opening to a charming Juliet balcony create the character buyers love, while the open living and dining space makes entertaining effortless. The private rear deck offers the perfect spot to unwind after work, enjoy dinner outdoors, or relax with friends overlooking the secure gated parking area below. Unlike many historic condos, this home checks the boxes today's buyers are searching for: in-unit laundry, secure assigned parking, additional basement storage, and low-maintenance condo living that lets you enjoy the neighborhood instead of maintaining a house. Step outside and you're just moments from the Delmar Loop's award-winning restaurants, live music, boutique shopping, MetroLink, Washington University, Forest Park, the Saint Louis Zoo, the Saint Louis Art Museum, The Muny, and miles of walking and biking trails. Whether you're catching a concert, meeting friends for happy hour, or spending an afternoon in the park, everything that makes St. Louis special is right outside your door. If you've been searching for a home that delivers historic charm, unbeatable walkability, and an effortless urban lifestyle, this is where your next chapter begins.
