Nestled within the heart of one of the most beautiful streets in the Central West End, this unique and dramatic space (20ft ceilings!) is steps from a wide variety of local cafes, shops, art galleries, parks, and bars. A truly walkable neighborhood! This space occupies the first and second floor of a historic three-unit apartment building that has been completely renovated. Enjoy the front and rear patios to relax and unwind. Walking distance to Barnes Hospital. Free street parking is available.
This boutique apartment was recently renovated, yet still preserves many historic architectural details. The apartment occupies the 1st and 2nd floors of the building and has private front and rear entrances.
The dramatic open living room features 20ft ceilings and a 16'x6' window; flooding the space with natural light. Climb the wrought iron spiral staircase leading to the primary bedroom loft. There's also an additional rear staircase with access to the second floor that connects the back two bedrooms. Enjoy the large front patio to watch the neighborhood stroll by. If you'd prefer more privacy, we have an additional brick patio at the rear of the building with a table, charcoal grill, fire pit, and patio furniture.
Please note: This location is on a quiet area of the street so guests can walk to the action without having to be in the bustle of this popular area. While perfect for a family stay, it cannot support more than the listed number of guests.
We have TVs in both the living room and lofted primary bedroom.
Beds: We have a king size bed in the primary bedroom/loft (which is open to the living room below), a queen bed in the 2nd bedroom (open to the back stairwell leading to the ground floor bedroom), and a king bed in the 3rd bedroom (closed to the living room, but open to the stairwell up to the 2nd floor bedroom).
The 2nd floor bathroom has an enclosed bathtub and shower unit and the ground floor full bath has a shower.
Parking is free street parking out front.
You will have sole access to the apartment itself with a private entrance. Access to the shared front brick patio and the fenced patio backyard are also available for your enjoyment.
We are local to St. Louis and can be reached via AirBnB message.
The Central West End (CWE) is the most walkable cosmopolitan neighborhood in St Louis. From amazing Forest Park, to the broad selection of cafes, art galleries, shops and bars, this neighborhood offers any visitor an immersive neighborhood experience - no car needed! This space is located on a quintessential CWE street boasting mature trees, wide streets with sidewalks, beautiful historic architecture, and set-back homes with ornate front patios and gardens. Please search online for the "CWE Scene" for more detailed info on the neighborhood (Airbnb won't let us post the website).
The apartment is within walking distance of Cortex and Barnes Jewish Hospital (BJC). A short drive to Washington University (WashU), and Forest Park. 10 minutes from Downtown St. Louis and Busch Stadium, as well as music venues such as Peabody Opera House and Fox Theatre. Easily accessible via Hwy 64/40.
St. Louis Zoo, Aquarium, City Museum, and the Magic House are all within a 7-15 minute drive
While there are many attractions within walking distance, you can easily get around the city via the Metrolink or the bus system. The CWE Metrolink station is only 1 mile from the house - a 15 min walk up Euclid through the heart of the CWE. Uber, Lyft, and taxi services are also available.
The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms, while on different floors, are connected by an open staircase. There is complete visual privacy, but some noise can travel between these two rooms.
No parties are allowed. This apartment is one of three units in the building and the neighborhood is quiet at night. The owner of the building lives on-site and we strictly enforce our no party rule and noise policy.
Parking is free on the street out front.
Most of our apartments are in historic multi-unit buildings, and this particular one is in someone's home. In order to ensure all of our guests have a peaceful stay, we have set quiet hours between 10:00pm-8:00am. We ask that all guests keep excessive noise to a minimum during these hours as noise can travel between the units.
Noise/party policy: Due to a handful of guests throwing parties and/or being excessively loud, we've had to enact a strict no-party/excessive noise policy that may include a fine. If parties are held or guests are excessively noisy, there may be a fine of up to $500 charged to the offending party. While we hate to be such sticklers and want to be as welcoming as possible, we have found this rule has greatly helped deter parties/excessive noise, and ensures everyone's quiet enjoyment of the space.
Additional guests may incur a fee of $25/guest.
Smoking is absolutely not allowed inside. $500 penalty will be charged to anyone who smokes inside or close enough to the house with a door or window open so that the house smells of smoke on the inside.
Due to the owner of the home having severe allergies, we are unable to accept service animals in our home. We apologize for the inconvenience.
