Property Description

LOT FOR SALE! The existing house is currently uninhabitable. Rare opportunity to own one of the few available lots in this well-established, highly sought-after neighborhood. The level grade and back alley access make for a straightforward build, and the lot size is ideal for a smartly designed home that maximizes every square foot — perfect for a low-maintenance lifestyle without sacrificing style or location. Situated a few blocks from The Hill, St. Louis's iconic 52-block Italian-American neighborhood, you'll have immediate access to one of the city's most authentic and beloved communities. Rooted in late 19th-century immigrant history, The Hill is home to generational family-owned restaurants like Zia's and Charlie Gitto's, beloved bakeries, specialty markets, and the landmark St. Ambrose Church. Streets adorned with Italian flag colors and the charming Piazza Imo plaza give the neighborhood a character and culture that is truly one of a kind — all just south of Forest Park near the highest point in the city. Commuting and connectivity are a breeze with quick access to Highway 44 and downtown St. Louis. Opportunities to build new in a neighborhood this established and this close to everything don't last.
