City life in between two residential areas
As the county seat for St. Louis County, Downtown Clayton is central to St. Louis while still retaining its own slice of city-life. Between Forest Park Parkway and Maryland Avenue, towering buildings dot the landscape. Both north and south of these seven blocks are residential neighborhoods, with stately Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival and ranch homes lining the streets. Even with the many residential streets, residents are never far from the action. “The city organizes numerous events for the community,” says Gabriella Macaluso, who has been the Community Manager for Clayton since 2021. “We want our residents to enjoy them.” Downtown Clayton is also only two and a half miles from the 1,300-acre Forest Park where residents can enjoy the Saint Louis Zoo or bike along the Dual Recreational Path.

Condos and stately homes close to downtown

Tudor and Colonial Revivals can begin around $560,000 and reach upwards of two million for newer construction. Lot sizes can vary greatly as well, but most homes sit close together. The front yards can be well-manicured, with vibrant grass even as the trees are changing colors.
