About this property

Charming 1BR Flat. The Hill/SW Gardens District

Renovated flat in St Louis's 'The Hill' NBHD. This 1-bedroom, 2-bed apt. is centrally located near Forest Park, BJC Hospitals, Universities, Downtown, & sporting venues. Walk to the best Italian restaurants the city has to offer, or stay in and cook! Lovely private bedroom w/ a queen bed. Great living room w/ cool exposed brick, & a comfy sofa & trundle sofa (converts to a 2nd queen bed). Beautifully tiled walk-in shower & double sink vanity. In-unit washer/dryer. Private front porch. Chromecast on TV, wifi, & easy check-in. The entire apartment is for your use. This recently renovated open floor plan is cozy and bright. The living room has exposed brick walls and is open to the kitchen area. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a center island for seating. A new in-unit washer and dryer are located in the hallway next to the bathroom. The bathroom is beautiful with a double vanity sink and a large tiled walk-in shower. The front porch is a nice place to watch the neighbors go about their days, especially in the warmer months. We are located across the street from a city park with a playground, recently resurfaced tennis courts, and a soccer and softball field! The entire 1st-floor apartment and front porch are all yours to enjoy exclusively. A 2nd-floor apartment with separate private access is located in the rear of the building, where the rear enclosed porch is. These areas are off-limits to 1st-floor guests. We like to give you privacy by providing access instructions so you can let yourself in, but we are right next door if something comes up! Otherwise, you will find a binder on the counter that answers just about every question we've had come up. If not, just send us a message. I usually answer pretty quickly. Restaurants, grocers, Forest Park with its free zoo, a great history museum, art museum, outdoor skating rink, Muny Opera, and much more. We are in midtown and close to all major highways, with easy access to downtown, Soulard District, Busch Stadium, the Arch, Barnes-Jewish, Children’s, Cardinal Glenn, and SLU Hospitals. Your car, cab, Uber & Lyft are your quickest way to get around. This apartment is on the first floor of a 2-unit flat. Parking is on the street, but space is always available; if not in front, park next to our house on the side street (Reber Pl), since we live on a corner. If you need to empty trash, please exit the front porch and follow the sidewalk to the back yard where you will find a receptacle just past the deck.

Disliked: Communication
Did not need parking, but seemed to be adequate on street parking available. Address given was not address of unit, but was the address adjacent. Clean. When we arrived, linens and towels had been left in dryer presumably from a previous guest's stay. Ambiguous instructions (did not say which sofa) on where to find trundle bed. Communication with hosts took either several days for a reply or there was no reply at all. Material re local restaurants etc. was out of date and incomplete.

About the host

Hosted by Steve & Terry Cacciatore

Host profile image
Steve and I grew up in St Louis and love our city. We are now retired, but had a carpentry business and have gutted and rehabbed this apartment. The apartment is attached to our home a home we converted from a duplex to a single family. My husband Steve grew up on 'The HIll' our cities historic Italian neighborhood and attended St Louis U Highschool and SIUE where he went to college and played soccer. I have a yoga teaching certification and help with carpentry as our property is still in transition, as well as run the vacation rentals. We have grown children between us and grandchildren. We love to spend our Friday nights cooking and sharing wine with friends and family. My husband is an amazing cook and an avid fisherman. We love to play Pickle ball, ride our bikes around the city, and play in a bocce league 8 months of the year, at our favorite neighborhood pub. We also own an Airstream and get out in it as often as we can.

Why they chose this property

Our carpentry company bought this property in 2008 to tear down and build new town homes overlooking Sublette park, but the economy had other ideas. In 2010 we adjusted our vision and began a long, still in progress rehabilitation of the buildings, which at the time were 2 sets of attached duplexes. We gutted both buildings and spent weekends rebuilding the interiors, converting the large units into our single family home. Buy 2012 we were moved in and then started the same process on the 2 smaller apartment units. The transformation has been an amazing process and we wouldn't live anywhere else!

What makes this property unique

St Louis was settled by the French, and Missouri had an amazingly prolific clay mines. As a result the city is littered with gorgeous, rich red/brown brick architecture. I loved that our buildings had the original city style architecture with flat roofs and tall ceilings with pocketed door parlors, large porches and fireplaces in every room. This house had many of those features so I feel very fortunate to have one of these buildings that just fits our city.
