Set along one of Ladue’s most exclusive and private lanes, this truly unique estate is a rare architectural offering, evoking the charm of the English countryside. A discreet circular drive creates a gracious arrival, highlighting the inviting facade of whitewashed brick, classic tile roof, and timeless detailing—an elegant expression of the enduring design of one of St. Louis’s preeminent early 20th century architects, and an introduction that immediately sets this home apart. Inside, a dramatic two-story entry with slate floors sets the tone for interiors that balance grand scale with warmth and livability. The expansive paneled living room is perfectly suited for both everyday enjoyment and memorable holiday gatherings. A light-filled sunroom opens seamlessly to the extraordinary grounds beyond, where an expansive, flat lot is framed by mature trees and complete privacy, anchored by a bluestone patio, serene saltwater pool, and dedicated pool bath—an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining or quiet retreat. The dining room stuns with fresh lacquered walls and a striking marble mantel, flowing effortlessly into the chef’s kitchen with marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and an inviting eat-in space. A well appointed bar connects to the vaulted family room, where a cozy fireplace creates the perfect gathering place. The main house offers six bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with a spa-like bath featuring heated floors, steam shower, double vanities, and an expansive walk-in closet. Two oversized ensuite bedrooms occupy the second floor, while the third floor includes three additional bedrooms sharing a beautiful hall bath. The lower level is designed for both leisure and wellness, complete with a temperature-controlled wine room, recreation space, exercise area, sauna, and steam room. A heated four-car garage is topped by a spacious apartment offering flexible living space, bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette—ideal for guests, extended family, or private work-from-home needs. Geothermal heating and cooling add efficiency to this remarkable estate. Properties of this caliber are seldom available, and this residence has not been offered to the public market in many years, having changed hands quietly—making this opportunity all the more special. Rich in character, rare in availability, and endlessly inviting, this is a truly special residence that feels both storied and timeless.
