Perched atop one of the nicest blocks in Benton Park West, this updated 2.5-story, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhome offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Inside, tall ceilings, wood floors, and abundant natural light showcase the homes character, while the updated kitchen and bathrooms provide a stylish modern touch. Recent upgrades include a new roof and windows (2025), new 2nd Fl HVAC system (2025), and convenient 2nd floor laundry. Upstairs, spacious bedrooms and a flexible 3-story layout offer room for living, entertaining, or a home office. 3rd floor is a great space for a home office, hobby room etc. Outdoor space is a true bonus: a fenced side yard provides privacy and a perfect retreat for pets, while both the front and back yards feature ample room for gardening, landscaping, or relaxing outdoors. The rear bedroom on the 2nd floor also has a spacious covered balcony for relaxing outside. A 1-car parking pad adds convenience in this walkable neighborhood. All of this sits just steps from vibrant Cherokee Street, where you can enjoy baked goods from Dianas, some of best tacos in the city at La Vallesana and El Bronco, brunch at The Mud House, or pizza at Yaquis. Just a couple of blocks to Benton Park and a short bike ride to Soulard or Tower Grove! Owner/Agent. Property has long been used as a rental. Many recent upgrades but seller prefers to sell as-is. Townhome next door available, as well, and could be purchased together.
