7237 High Street Maplewood MO 63143 is being offered for sale at $175000
7237 High Street Maplewood Mo is a dutch colonial style home built in 1920. The county tax records indicate the effective year as 2001 because that was the year the gut rehab was completed.
7237 High Street is on the border of Maplewood and Richmond Heights, MO. It has all new plumbing, electric, roof and vinyl siding. The current owner restored the pine floors, updated the kitchen, added a full bath and laundry room on the first floor and wall – a wonderful family home with lots of character.
The town of Maplewood has a reputation of attracting budding artists and the current owner is definitely an artist. She is a classical pianist and used the “family room/den” as her studio. This room is ideal for many types of artists (and entrepreneurs also). First of all, the room has a separate outdoor entrance. Secondly, it has two walls of windows – one east facing for morning coffee and the other north facing for the non-glare light. It has refinished original pine floors. There is a full bath a door away. This room has been used as a master bedroom. The kitchen adjoins this lovely room and thus the room has also been used as a dining room. You gotta love flexible floor plans.
The owner loved to cook and she had a large table in the center of the room. She loved to entertain and many times would entertain a handful of friends in the kitchen. (It really is in the style of an olde-time kitchen). There is a lot of counter space and good storage.
All of the rooms have tall ceilings and tall windows. The living room and dining room are open. The floors are refinished original pine floors. Upstairs are two bedrooms and another full bath.
Additional features of the home include a covered front porch, a garage, a full walkout basement and a main floor laundry.
Location and Neighborhood
The owner loved to walk and considered this home ideal for that purpose. Many a Sunday she would walk to Forest Park. Also, 7237 High Street is just a couple of blocks off the beaten path of old Rte 66 (for us oldies). It is now Manchester Road and is the Maplewood Loop with many specialty shops, restaurants and nightlife. Shopping, Dining and Entertainment
