A mixed-use retreat just outside the big city
Chesterfield is a city by the Missouri River that can reel residents in for several reasons. It could be the two highly rated school districts that serve the city, the chance for a spacious property in a quiet subdivision, jobs at companies like Pfizer and St. Luke’s Hospital, or the opportunity to live in a spot bustling with places to dine and shop. All of it comes in a community with better-than-average crime rates, just 22 miles west of St. Louis. “Location and affordability,” says Realtor and longtime St. Louis-area resident Suzanne Matyiko, of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Alliance Real Estate, citing two of the area’s biggest appeals. “If you want to live on that side of the river, it’s a little more affordable, and the lots are probably a little bit bigger than if you’re closer to St. Louis.”

Living at residents’ pace
Chesterfield’s housing stock is mainly colonials, new traditionals and ranch-style houses built in the mid-to-late 20th century. These options go for anywhere from $300,000 to almost $2 million based largely on square footage. Closer to the city’s downtown commercial district, condos are also an option and sell between $140,000 to $325,000. The median home price in the city is $624,953, which is 13.6% higher than the national average. “As soon as the houses come on the market, they already have contracts,” says Realtor Bob Waters, of Coldwell Banker Realty - Gundaker, who has worked in the area for over 20 years.
The 117-acre Downtown Chesterfield mixed-used development that’s set to be completed in 2029 will add more home inventory. It will also include restaurants, shops and offices.

Retail therapy is easy to reach
Chesterfield residents have no shortage of nearby retail options, many clustered in a corridor just off Interstate 64. The stretch includes multiple supermarkets, car dealerships, an outlet mall and a movie theater, interspersed with an assortment of restaurants, mostly chains.
A former outlet mall here was converted into an entertainment hub dubbed The District. The District includes multiple breweries and other eateries, plus The Factory, a 52,000-square-foot, 3,000-seat venue with multiple shows each week, including concerts and comedy shows. “The Factory is a pretty big draw for people, closer to home,” says Suzanne Matyiko, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Alliance Real Estate and a longtime St. Louis-area resident. “It’s a newer venue.” Locals can see live music during the free Sounds of Summer concert series, too, which Matyiko says is also popular. The concerts happen on Saturday evenings throughout the summer.
