THIS HOME THAT WAS BUILT IN 1860 ON 7+ AC. HAS THE GRAND FEEL OF WEALTH FROM THE ERA OF THE 1800'S, FROM THE TALL CEILINGS, LARGE SIZE ROOMS, HARDWOOD FLOORS, TRIM WORK, FIREPLACES IN EVERY ROOM, TO THE HAND CRAFTED STAIRWAY. THE HILL TOP SETTING WAS CLEARLY CHOSEN FOR THE MAGNIFICENT VIEWS IN EVERY DIRECTION. IT'S A MUST SEE !! ABOUT 45MINS. FROM LAKE ST. LOUIS $274,900

I LOVE THIS HOUSE AND THE SETTING. The view when you drive into the field to get there is such a surprise. This was the old Pruitt Mc Ilroy place. He lived at my house, 1845 Elgin/Cottrell house after he sold it and married his wife Jamie. I love the entrance hall with the door on each end and the side lights and fan light above. This would make a wonderful weekend place for some one with a horse or just to get away. So private. I wish I could sell my house and start over with this place. I would love to get at it.
