Description

If Tootie Smith came barreling down the stairs whispering “Meet me in St. Louis,” she’d feel right at home at 4608 McPherson Ave! Built in 1905, just one year after the 1904 World’s Fair, this home has been quietly showing off for over a century, and it still hasn’t run out of reasons to do so, offering 5 bedrooms & 3 baths across beautifully updated living spaces. The stately stone facade and covered front porch create a timeless first impression, offering the perfect setting for morning coffee or an evening gathering. Inside, the original staircase makes a proper first impression, flanked by fresh paint and brand new bamboo hardwood floors that extend throughout the main living areas, blending historic character with refined updates. The living room is bathed in natural light from bay windows and anchored by one of four fireplaces (one functional, which just makes it more exclusive), creating an inviting yet sophisticated gathering space. The formal dining room offers generous proportions for hosting holidays and elegant dinner parties alike. The kitchen, fully remodeled in 2023, delivers both style and substance—granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, solid wood cabinetry, and a substantial center island designed for effortless entertaining. The powder room has been thoughtfully redone, and extensive plumbing and electrical updates enhance everyday comfort and confidence. The second level features a spacious primary suite with its own fireplace, oversized windows, bamboo flooring, and an updated ensuite bath complete with double vanities, a walk-in rain shower, heated floors, and a large closet. This floor also includes flexible living space, an updated laundry room, and the potential for an additional bedroom, office, or private den. The third floor expands the home’s versatility with three bedrooms and a fully renovated bath finished in porcelain tile, along with new HVAC and original leaded glass windows that honor the home’s architectural integrity. Recent improvements include remodeled kitchen and baths, updated systems, fresh paint throughout, new flooring on all three levels, and a new roof and gutters in 2026. Outdoors, a large deck, low-maintenance gravel courtyard, and two off-street parking spaces offer rare convenience in the Central West End. Just steps from BJC, Euclid Avenue, Forest Park, close proximity to Wash U & SLU, and the neighborhood’s premier dining and shopping, this home pairs historic distinction with modern refinement—ready for its next chapter. Cheers!
