Some homes are beautiful. Others are memorable. And every so often, an opportunity comes along that may only present itself once in a lifetime. Tucked into the heart of Lafayette Square and facing the park, this extraordinary residence on prestigious Park Avenue began life in 1869 as the Church of the Unity and is now the oldest church on the square. Designed by architect Frederick Raeder, who in 1874 became the first person appointed to lead the School of Architecture at Washington University, the building's remarkable original character remains at the heart of this extraordinary private residence. From the soaring 26-foot tall arched ceilings and exposed wood beams to the enormous stained-glass double doors and magnificent stained-glass windows, the architecture creates a sense of scale, character and history that simply cannot be recreated. Yet for all its drama, this is not a home that feels like a museum. Thoughtfully transformed for modern living, it offers generous living and entertaining spaces, including a main-floor primary suite and a second bedroom on the main level—an uncommon advantage in a neighborhood where most of the homes place the primary suite upstairs. Four bedroom suites in all, an expanisve masterfully designed chef's kitchen, main-level laundry, potential theater/game room and wine cellar in the lower level and an attached, finished garage with both heating and cooling provide the comfort and functionality expected of a truly exceptional residence. And when it comes time to entertain, the scale and character of this home make it possible to host gatherings on a level few private residences could ever accommodate—from intimate dinners to some of the most lavish celebrations imaginable, all within a setting your guests will never forget. The outdoor spaces offer an entirely different experience. Just off the kitchen, a covered porch leads to a private patio tucked beneath mature trees and illuminated by string lights—a wonderfully peaceful retreat where filtered sunlight, quiet evenings and the surrounding greenery create a setting that feels almost magical. A separate rear yard provides a perfect spot for four-legged family members, while the expansive front lawn, larger than many entire lots in Lafayette Square, offers an abundance of possibilities for entertaining, gardening, play or simply enjoying the extraordinary setting directly across from Lafayette Park. More than a home, this is the kind of place that becomes part of your identity—a conversation piece that friends remember, visitors talk about and everyone who enters will have a story to tell. Perhaps most fittingly, the current owners found a way to honor the history of these walls in the most personal way possible. When they began planning their wedding, they realized they didn't need to search for the perfect venue—they were already living in it. Beneath these soaring ceilings, surrounded by family and friends, they exchanged their wedding vows and began the next chapter of their lives. They were married here. Now, this extraordinary home is ready for someone else to begin theirs.

Versatile, income-producing opportunity in the heart of the Penrose neighborhood! Both the main and upper levels are currently tenant-occupied, providing rental income from the property from day one. Adding to its long-term flexibility, the property has a rare zoning variance allowing a daycare for up to 18 children on the main level, creating options for an investor or future owner with a variety of potential uses. The existing tenancy makes 4655 Farlin particularly appealing for an investor seeking a property with income already in place rather than starting with vacant units. Looking ahead, the property's distinctive configuration and daycare variance provide additional possibilities as leases and occupancy needs evolve, whether continuing its residential use or exploring the approved daycare use on the main level. Situated on a quieter one-way street, the property features a fenced yard that provides useful outdoor space, along with a garage accessed from the rear alley for convenient off-street parking and storage. The layout and exterior configuration lend themselves well to the property's flexible residential and permitted daycare uses. Located in the Penrose neighborhood, the property enjoys convenient access to public transportation, including multiple bus routes. Outdoor and community amenities include Penrose Park, WC Handy Park, Tink Bradley Playground, and nearby community gardens. Just minutes away, Fairground Park provides additional recreational opportunities with expansive green space, trails, and lakes. The area also offers convenient access to I-70, I-55, and downtown St. Louis, connecting the property with employment centers, hospitals, educational institutions, and other destinations throughout the city. Neighborhood schools, community organizations, churches, and everyday conveniences are also within the surrounding area. With tenants occupying both levels, existing rental income, a fenced yard, rear garage, and the unusual benefit of an approved daycare variance for up to 18 children on the main level, 4655 Farlin Avenue offers an investor a combination of current income and long-term flexibility that is difficult to replicate. Income potential, long-term ownership, and the ability to perform as a productive real estate asset are the reasons this property was selected as part of the Penthouse Portfolio Collection.

The Franklin School Apartments, a 75-unit, four-story, 77,127 SF historic conversion — originally built in 1909 as a school designed by prominent architect William Ittner and fully redeveloped in 2006 through a Historic Tax Credit renovation executed by HBD Construction, including all-new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, windows, and much more. The property leased to full occupancy within four months of that delivery, and nearly two decades later its core building systems remain sound, giving a buyer a renovation plan focused on cosmetic updates and lease-up rather than deferred infrastructure risk. At 66.7% occupancy with a predominantly month-to-month rent roll, the 25 vacant units here allow for a new owner to begin renovating and leasing immediately. Average in-place rents of $618/unit sit $232 below the $850/unit market average across 74 one-bedroom units and one studio, putting substantial upside within reach on nearly the entire building. Historic Tax Credit eligibility at the state and federal level further offsets renovation capital, and two attached grass lots add optionality for future parking or amenity development. Franklin School Apartments sits in Downtown West, less than one mile from the new NGA West headquarters — the $1.7 billion National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency campus and the largest federal investment in St. Louis history, bringing approximately 3,150 employees directly into the submarket. Just to the south, the new MLS Stadium (Energizer Park) was recently completed for $457 million and is a huge attraction and development catalyst for the neighborhood. A structurally sound, systems-renovated historic asset at $45,333/unit, a $232/month rent delta with an immediate lease-up runway, tax credit upside, and a location benefiting from the largest federal investment St. Louis has ever seen — Franklin School Apartments delivers outsized value-add potential with minimal execution risk.
