Located on one of the best streets in Kirkwood, this beautiful Craftsman style home has great curb appeal and is maintained like a new home! The inviting front porch is the perfect place to sit and watch and chat with the truly friendly neighbors that call this street home. Fully owned solar panels were installed in 2021 to the south side of the roof, which nearly eliminates electric bills. The home is the perfect size with well-appointed rooms that you will actually use and 10 ft ceilings on the main level and 9 ft on the second level. As you enter the home you are greeted with hardwood floors throughout. To the right of the hall is a bedroom on the main, currently being used as a dedicated office space with pocket doors, built-in custom shelving, light with ceiling fan and a full bathroom that also access to the main living area. Across the hall is a large formal dining room with beautiful, coffered ceilings, decorative moldings and a new chandelier. Off the dining room is the butler's pantry complete with a beverage cooler and extra cabinet for storage. Opposite the butler's pantry is a huge pantry, perfect for all your food storage and kitchen equipment. As you enter the kitchen, to the right is the stainless-steel refrigerator freezer that conveys with the home at no additional cost to the buyer. The large open plan chef's kitchen has a huge honed leathered granite counter island that can easily seat four people and stunning new custom hanging pendant lighting. There is an entire back wall full of cabinets, under cabinet accent lighting, an industrial style Bertazonni gas stove and vented exhaust fan to the exterior of the home, built in microwave, a dishwasher in the kitchen island and a farmhouse sink. The owners replaced the sterile white subway tile with an appealing warm tone stone back splash. Continuing from the kitchen is a sun filled breakfast area.
