Set on a rare double lot at the edge of Dogtown, this 1920 stone bungalow pairs the craftsmanship of its era with a full suite of modern updates. The deep front porch, framed by massive stone piers and original tapered columns, sets the tone for a home that has kept its character intact: high ceilings, historic millwork, hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the living room. The kitchen was completely renovated and expanded with custom cabinetry, solid-surface counters, a breakfast bar, stainless gas appliances, and a butler's pantry connecting to the dining room. With 2,200 square feet above grade, the layout offers four generous bedrooms and 2.5 baths, including two main-floor bedrooms and a second-floor addition housing a 17x24 primary suite, a second guest room, and an updated full bath with walk-in shower. A partially finished lower level adds another 560 square feet of flexible space. Out back, a fenced yard opens onto a stunning stone patio with a built-in grill, fire pit, and multiple seating areas beneath mature shade trees, plus wide-open sunset views across the double lot. An oversized attached garage and a driveway turnaround pad handle parking with room to spare. The list of improvements runs deep: new roof with gutter guards (2022), new first-floor hardwoods (2021), new guest bathroom (2023), built-in window coverings in the front room (2021), glass block basement windows (2024), an enclosed mudroom with new doors and walls (2024), plus updated windows, gutters, plumbing, and A/C. All of this in a walkable neighborhood just minutes from Forest Park, Maplewood, the Hill, and Highway 40/64. Historic charm, modern comfort, and a lot you won't find twice.
