12137 Fahrpark Lane

Open Sat, 9/19, 12-2pm. Your search for a house with real personality is over. Solid hardwood runs through the entire main and second floor of this four-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home on Fahrpark Lane — roughly 2,456 square feet, spotless top to bottom, and built around a kitchen that was done right: custom French-country cabinetry with a stained edge detail, granite counters, and a tumbled-stone backsplash. The adjoining breakfast room brings the light coming in, with huge windows and its own man-door out to the backyard. The primary suite adds a vaulted ceiling and its own extra-large closet — the current owners converted bedroom four into it, reached straight through the primary bath, easily reversible for a buyer who prefers four true bedrooms. Bedroom two comes with a bonus: a hand-painted mural of a sunset countryside scene, with a fawn, a puppy tucked into the grass, and a handful of hidden characters every kid will recognize, painted by the seller, who's an artist. Kids will love it; or it paints over in an afternoon for anyone who'd rather start blank. It's all set in Unincorporated St. Louis County, Creve Coeur area, zoned to Parkway Schools, with I-270 minutes away. The Westport Plaza corridor, Lambert Airport, and Olive Boulevard shopping are all close, and downtown Clayton is an easy run. Come see how much house this actually is.
