Yesterday I went through this stunning house in Ladue designed by Harris Armstrong. I just loved it. A true masterpiece. It sits on 3 acres in Ladue, so I am fearful that someone may want the lot.
"One of St. Louis' treasures by renowned architect Harris Armstrong, this property was designed totally around the idea of being a passive solar home. The expansive 49' great room provides the perfect setting for any gathering with its floor to ceiling glass walls providing serene views bringing the outdoors in. Multiple seating areas are all brought together by the impressive limestone fireplace set centerstage. The divided flr plan includes 4 bedrms (3 with flr to ceiling windows); The master suite and 2 bedrms with a Jack & Jill bath at one end, and a 4th bedroom suite on the other, adjoining the kitchen perfect for nanny or in-law quarters. The efficient L-shaped kitchen boasts stainless counters, 2 stainless sinks, white Geneva cabinets and tile flr. The lower level sports a rec room with stone fireplace, wet bar and terrazzo floors with built in shuffle board, powder room and walks out to an area perfect for pool. Another feature, 3-car garage plus carport for additional parking." $1,265,000

That might be the coolest house I have ever seen!
I have driven by this house and the “butterfly” house across the street… they dare NOT touch this house! I can see updating a few things on the inside… if only i had listened to my parents and done better in school!!! this would be mine.
