Property Description

Set on a charming tree-lined street, this home offers the ideal blend of neighborhood feel and city convenience. Enjoy walkable access to parks, shops, and local favorites while still having a quiet place to unwind at the end of the day.

The main floor unfolds with an effortless, highly functional layout designed for modern living. Expansive living and dining spaces flow seamlessly, anchored by rich hardwood flooring and classic architectural details. A versatile den offers the perfect setting for a cozy lounge or library, while a dedicated office provides a quiet, tucked-away work-from-home retreat. The mudroom adds everyday ease with stylish functionality, and a well-placed powder room completes the main level.

Upstairs, the oversized primary suite is a true retreat—generous in scale and elevated in feel. In addition to the spacious sleeping quarters, a separate adjoining office or sitting room creates a private, flexible extension of the suite. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed Jack-and-Jill bathroom, offering both comfort and convenience.
The partially finished lower level provides additional living area and a ratskeller-style space—ideal for entertaining, game nights, or casual lounging—along with an additional half bath. Unfinished areas provide ample storage and a dedicated laundry space.

Step outside to discover beautifully curated gardens that transform the backyard into a private oasis. Lush plantings and layered greenery create a serene, storybook setting—perfect for morning coffee, evening gatherings, or quiet moments outdoors.

Perfectly positioned in the heart of University City, 585 Stratford Ave delivers the lifestyle buyers are chasing, just minutes from Clayton's vibrant dining and business district and a quick hop to Washington University. Whether you're commuting, catching a game, or grabbing a bite at Taco Buddha, the location simply doesn't get better.
