One of the most historic homes in Kirkwood has been meticulously restored to its remarkable 1885 glory and you could become the next purveyor of its history. 400 Miriam has only had 4 owners during its 141 years. It was built in the beloved Victorian style by known St. Louis architect, John Mitchell with his family. The current owners devoted many of their days to finding the original exterior colors of the estate and so much more, which included 2 separate buildings nearby; today, these are neighboring homes. You'll be floored by the lovely hardwood, custom millwork, stretching windows, and historic details throughout.
The main floor showcases its stately staircase upon entry, a stunning marble fireplace mantel in your main lounge, a 3-seasons sunporch with ornate fireplace and stone flooring for all sorts of entertaining, a grand dining room, a butlers station, a restful den, and an eat-in kitchen with custom cabinetry and state of the art kitchen appliances. The second floor boasts 3 oversized bedrooms, one used currently as an office and two with ornate fireplaces, another large sunroom with full HVAC, a primary suite with walk-in closet and full bath that put others to shame, and another beautiful full bath and half bath round out the floor. The top level has two more bedrooms and a full bath with clawfoot tub. One of the rooms is quite large currently used as a home theatre!
Another full bathroom in the basement, and the clean, well-organized workshop showcases the care put into all parts of this property. Heading outside, you of course have your drive-in carport on the west side of the property, and to the east is the oversized 2-car garage with another work area with a setup for your electric vehicle. Outside, you'll also see the great attention given to landscaping bringing so much natural beauty to an already sterling exterior of the home.
With all the mechanical, tactical, historical, luxurious, and proper updates to this 141-year old property, it is sure to live on for another century with the love and care from the right owner.
