1016 Childress Avenue

St Louis, MO 63139

Cue the guitar riff... because 1016 Childress is looking pretty sweet. Whether you're searching for your next investment or an owner-occupant opportunity that'll help pay the mortgage, this beautifully renovated Dogtown duplex is music to our ears. Each unit welcomes you with gleaming hardwood floors, crown molding and updated lighting before leading you into a cozy living room anchored by a beautiful brick fireplace and mantel. The cased opening flows into a spacious dining room that's ready for holiday dinners, game nights or takeout on the good plates. (No judgment here.) The updated kitchen absolutely crushed its renovation with granite countertops, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, subway tile wrapping the walls, built-in shelving and enough counter space to finally attempt that recipe you've had saved for three years. The hits just keep coming. Both bedrooms are spacious and filled with natural light. One features a large closet and French doors that open to the sweetest sunroom, making it the perfect home office, reading nook, plant room or your new favorite spot for morning coffee. The second bedroom keeps the hardwood floors and ups the storage game with two generous closets. Needless to say, your tenants won't be complaining about closet space anytime soon. The full bath keeps things timeless with a subway tile surround, hex mosaic flooring, privacy window and a classic tub/shower combo. Downstairs, the basement is clean, spacious and ready for whatever you've got cookin'. Minus all the pretty moving parts, the real showstopper is the condition. And beyond all the pretty stuff, the important stuff has been handled too. Central A/C + heat, updated electric + plumbing, newer vinyl windows and basement laundry with individual storage lockers make landlord life a whole lot sweeter. Detached garage for off street parking-making privacy, parking, or storage- that much better! All of this in the heart of Dogtown, just minutes from Forest Park, the Zoo, Tamm Ave favorites + everything that makes this neighborhood one of STL's greatest hits. Sweet Child o' Mine? More like sweet investment o' yours. CHEERS!
