About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to 503 S Benton Ave — an adorable 1.5-story bungalow on a corner lot in the heart of St. Charles! You’ll love being just minutes away from all the fun on Historic Main Street, the scenic Katy Trail, Ameristar Casino, SSM St. Joseph Hospital, and Lindenwood University. This cozy 3-bedroom, 1-bath home is packed with charm and thoughtful touches throughout. The main floor features beautiful hardwood floors, two comfortable bedrooms, and a bright living area that flows into a cozy family room with shiplap accents, a cute barn door, and French doors leading out to a fully fenced backyard. Whether you’re hosting a BBQ or relaxing under the string lights, the deck creates the perfect outdoor hangout. The kitchen is functional and inviting, with plenty of cabinet space, stainless steel appliances, a gas stove with double ovens, and the refrigerator stays! Upstairs is your own private hideaway — a spacious third bedroom with bonus storage and flex space to make it your own. The clean, dry basement includes the washer and dryer, built-in shelving, and extra room for storage or hobbies. With a detached garage and an additional two-car parking pad, this home blends character, comfort, and convenience. Perfect for first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone wanting to invest in the St. Charles lifestyle, this move-in-ready home comes with everything you need — just bring yourself and settle right in!
