Some properties stand out not because of size or price but because of their individuality. These listings represent some of the most unique and memorable homes I have sold, each offering something different in design, history, or use.
870-876 Hodiamont
This University City compound was one of the most unusual offerings in the area. The property included a loft-style residence with ceilings up to fourteen feet, skylights, concrete floors, and an updated kitchen, paired with a separate studio building that had served artists for years. The combination created a rare live-and-work setup.
4012 Juniata
Designed by architect Adrian Luchini, this contemporary home functioned as both a residence and an artistic environment. Luchini’s design emphasized open space, natural light, and custom-built cabinetry throughout. With its loftlike layout and sculptural qualities, it appealed to buyers seeking architecture that felt expressive and thoughtful within a walkable Tower Grove neighborhood.
503 N 20th Street
Engine House No. 32, built in 1919, offered the chance to own a recognizable historic structure in downtown St Louis. The former firehouse featured an expansive second-floor loft with fifteen-foot ceilings, original pine floors, dramatic skylights, and access to a rooftop with city views.
145 South Sappington
This well-known Oakland residence stood out for its mix of Art Deco and International style influences, along with its memorable “crooked office” addition that everyone in the area recognized. Over time, the home was expanded to include bright gathering spaces and a semicircular dining window overlooking the yard.
1651 West Adams
Situated on more than an acre in the Sugar Creek Nature Preserve, this home offered a modern take on a treehouse setting with multiple decks and elevated views. Its interior featured marble surfaces, vaulted rooms, and a sunken living area that connected to outdoor spaces. The layout made the home feel integrated with the wooded surroundings while still being close to downtown Kirkwood.
