About This Home

As of October 2016

As you drive up the long approach to this palatial stone beauty, you are overtaken by its elegance and the stately way it tucks itself into 3 acres of private woods. Built by Higginbotham Bros. with approx 8400 sq ft, this one story home in Ladue imbues style and elegance at every turn. The light filled foyer with an Italian limestone floor gives way to a stunning living room with a magnificent carved marble fireplace from an 18th century European chateau. Evident throughout the home is the conscious balance between sophistication and convenience, from the impressive and peaceful art gallery to the retreat area including an office with a wood and granite fireplace, an impressive billiard table setting, and a spa/workout room. Designed for entertaining, this estate includes a kitchen with endless amenities and a generous party room with breathtaking views. The idyllic surroundings and meticulous attention to detail make this home a rare gem and a perfect place for any family.
