Welcome to a rare opportunity in Webster Groves’ coveted Helfenstein Park neighborhood, just a short walk to the dining, shops, and charm of Old Webster. Originally built in 1913, this meticulously preserved and fully renovated historic home offers a seamless blend of timeless architecture and modern luxury. As only the fourth owner, the next steward will carry forward a legacy of thoughtful care and preservation. Recognized with a Historic Preservation Award, the home offers 3,477 square feet of finished living space across 2.5 stories, including 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. The elegant original staircase sets the tone upon entry, anchoring a gracious foyer and showcasing the home’s historic character. The spacious living room features a woodburning fireplace flanked by French doors that open to a covered patio with arched openings, leading to an additional patio and professionally landscaped grounds—creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for entertaining. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining, featuring custom cabinetry, premium Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Bosch appliances, and a striking 9' x 4' Danby marble island with seating. An adjoining butler’s pantry extends the space with matching cabinetry and high-end finishes, providing exceptional function and storage. Extensive renovation updates include all-new electrical and plumbing, a slate roof, and energy-efficient geothermal heating and cooling-delivering long-term efficiency, comfort, and peace of mind. The primary suite offers a true retreat, highlighted by a 300 sq ft spa-inspired bath finished in Carrara marble, including marble floors, a marble shower, elegant half-height marble walls, and a soaking tub. A private 130 sq ft balcony extends the suite outdoors, creating a rare and serene escape. Four additional bedrooms are thoughtfully distributed across the upper levels. The second floor includes two additional bedrooms, a beautifully appointed full bath with marble floors, and a finished sunroom offering flexible space for an office or sitting room. The third floor features two more bedrooms and a full bath with a walk-in shower and marble floors—ideal for guests or private living quarters. The unfinished lower level has been enhanced with a lowered floor providing approximately 7-foot clearance and rough-in plumbing for a future bath, offering excellent potential for additional finished living space. A rare combination of historic character, award-winning preservation, and refined modern updates, all in one of Webster Groves’ most desirable and walkable locations.
