Forget the yellow brick road... we’re following the yellow front door straight to 4066 Phillips ;) Built in 1903... but thankfully, most of the 1903 stayed on the outside! This 2 bed, 2 bath Tower Grove South cutie serves up all the century-home charm with a hip, contemporary interior + a floor plan that just works, and works well. Start with the happiest yellow front door on the block, then step inside to refreshed hardwood floors, soaring ceilings + an original wood mantel with decorative tile that’s been looking good for 123 years. The open floor plan flows from the living room into the dining room, past a convenient powder bath + into the refreshed kitchen with white cabinetry, granite countertops, SS appliances and a gray tile backsplash. And those extra-tall ceilings throughout? Before A/C, they weren’t just showing off... our 1903 friends knew a thing or two about staying cool. Upstairs, an open-riser staircase leads to a dramatic two-story foyer + upper-level overlook that keeps things feeling anything but century-old. Both bedrooms offer beautiful flooring, generous closets + updated fixtures, while the primary adds walkout access through an original door topped with a stained glass transom. The full bath keeps things decidedly this century with a shower/tub combo, modern vanity + updated lighting. Downstairs, the partially finished basement adds wood-look flooring, exposed stone walls + room for an office, gym, rec space or whatever else you’ve got cookin’. There’s even enough old-world stone down here to make us wonder where they hid the beer barrels. Out back, TWO decks are practically begging for a little St. Louis-style Mardi Gras action. Beads optional, good times encouraged. Add a fully fenced yard, 2-car off-street parking opporunity + a location just blocks from Tower Grove Park, neighborhood cafes, restaurants and STL staples. 123 years old and still knows how to have a good time. CHEERS!

Live out all of your St. Louis Hills dreams without breaking the budget with this sweet brick bungalow! Built in 1942 and solid as a tank, you’ll appreciate the quality construction of a home from a time when things were simply built to last. Original hardwood floors on the main level and fresh paint mean there’s nothing to do but unpack and make it your own. The main floor offers a sunny living room with southern exposure (hello, houseplants!), a dining area, cheerful kitchen with a window overlooking the backyard, two bedrooms, and a full bath. Head downstairs for even more living space, including a big rec room, bonus room that would make a great home office, workout space or guest room, laundry, storage, and a second full bath. Outside, there’s a fully fenced backyard with a patio and off-street parking for two. And then there’s the location. Grab lunch at Mom’s Deli, meet friends for happy hour margs at La Catrina or Pueblo Solis, walk to The Breakfast Corner for brunch, or catch a Bishop DuBourg football game practically in your backyard. It’s the kind of neighborhood where you can actually leave the car at home and walk to the places you love. This is a terrific way to get into the neighborhood everyone's trying to get into--don't miss out!

OPEN Thurs. 9/10 4-6 p.m. South City has a lot of charming gingerbreads, but the 5300 block of Walsh in Southampton might just win the award for the most picturesque crop of them all! And this is where 5312 Walsh is happily situated. Enter through the spacious stone front porch where you can enjoy the view of all this charm and pass into the living and dining rooms. Observe the original hardwoods, decorative fireplace and the classic colorful stained glass windows. Next up, find two good-sized bedrooms and a fully remodeled bathroom (2010) with pristine tile floor, and recently replaced shower doors (2024). And now for the real star of the show: the kitchen has been completely remodeled in 2022 and features sealed, honed marble countertops (with 25 year sealant), 36" cabinets with 12" cabinets on top, white fireclay farmhouse sink, new stainless appliances, refinished original hardwoods, a hood, soaring tile backsplash and a large island with a reclaimed oak butcher block top. Also, for all you coffee lovers, try to find the secret sweet hidden coffee bar that you can reveal and hide as needed with sliding doors! ;) Out back, there is a convenient sunroom that can be used as a mudroom, office or sitting area. This whole floor has been freshly painted top to bottom in 2026 and all of the windows replaced with wood blinds installed throughout (2023). Upstairs, two more official bedrooms give a nice amount of extra living space that could function perfectly as a den, office, yoga studio, library, you name it! Note the refinished hardwoods upstairs and paint throughout. Head down the rebuilt basement stairs (2020) into your uncommonly dry basement! After you check out the meticulously sealed stone foundation, don't miss the complete basement drainage system including a sump pump installed in 2020. That's right folks. This basement is usable! Note the recording studio built in 2021 in the front of the basement perfect for a myriad of uses! Out back, the entertainment potential is high with a gorgeous paver patio (2009) and off street parking available in the garage. Many high ticket items have been replaced as well for your peace of mind including: NEW ROOF and siding for both garage and home (2025), chimney tuckpointing and cover (2025), new washer, dishwasher, water heater, A/C and FURNACE (2020 and 2019), whole home surge protector, gutter guards (2010), 200 amp electrical service (2007) and radon mitigation system (2005). This house has been PRISTINELY cared for so that you don't have to spend money on projects. And you're right around the corner from Russell's on Macklind, Espresso Yourself and Clementine's Ice Cream. What more could you want? :)
