SOLD/ CLOSED Lafayette Walk Condo 1017 Mississippi #D

Finally one of my most difficult sales have closed. This went under contract in February....Ugh! In order to meet the Buyer's request, I had to go through the process of having the condo complex VA Loan approved.  I will never agree to doing that again!  The rest of the condo owners will benefit greatly from my efforts when trying to sell their places. My file on this one is about 5" thick. Oh well....it is done and everyone is happy.  I represented the Sellers.

2229 Park Avenue, Lafayette Square

This Spring I had the opportunity to list and sell 2229 Park Avenue for a stylish couple. I put a Coming Soon sign up and had an Open House for some city-oriented realtors and believe it or not, sold it before it actually went into the MLS. I wish all of my listings moved like that.  Though not all listings are as admired and command such presence at their location.  This home has lovingly been referred to as the "Show Boat" house. It sits across from Lafayette Square. Well yesterday I was in the grocery store and was browsing through St. Louis AT HOME magazine's September/October issue, and 2229 Park Avenue was listed in the section, The 10 Most Beautiful Houses in St. Louis. Below is the page from the magazine on 2229 Park Avenue and some of my pictures.

 

The Kitchen features refrigeration cabinets originally used by Bissinger's in one of their original shops.
