About This Home

Built circa 1904. The Worlds Fair. A beautiful Gravois Park 2-family property. Two spacious, 2-bedroom units with original hardwood floors, loft-style high ceilings, and large windows bringing natural light throughout the open-space apartments. The property was restored from top to bottom in 2018: the roof, appliances, fixtures, all systems are just 7years old. Modern kitchens with stainless appliances, and updated baths. The bedrooms are tandem and private. The in-unit laundry washers/dryer is separated from the great room, in the foyer area. A nice pad for parking in the back, as well as on-street parking. This is a great income producing property, or owner-occupant. The 2nd floor unit is ready for a new owner or tenant. Located just a block down from the heart of Cherokee and its selection of restaurants, shops, and entertainment.
