A view of the Mississippi River from your living room and an interior atrium that's like your very own snow globe! That's what you'll find in this custom contemporary ranch, tucked away in a hidden corner of St. Louis City! It was designed by local architect Robert D. Albrecht in 1978 as a personal residence and sits on a beautiful lot of nearly 1/2 acre. A unique covered porch welcomes you, leading the way to a sprawling open living area with a wall of windows, sleek fireplace and spacious kitchen. The master suite, with double closets & updated bath, rests at the far end of the house and opens onto the atrium via sliding glass door. A second bedroom also opens onto the atrium and has another sliding door leading to the deck outside. The backyard was the seller's pride & joy, so it's very well maintained. You'll also appreciate the oversize garage and huge amount of bonus space in the finished basement. This home could use some cosmetic TLC but is solid overall. What a GEM!
