Tucked inside a quiet 23-home enclave with a private spring-fed lake, this sprawling brick ranch sits on OVER AN ACRE, offering space, privacy, and a setting that feels miles away – yet minutes to everything unincorporated Ballwin has to offer, including PARKWAY schools. With warmer weather here, the lake comes to life, with neighbors enjoying kayaking and paddle boating just steps from home. Set on an elevated lot with a circular drive that wraps to the rear, the home has strong presence from the street, with a covered front porch, retaining walls, and established landscaping creating a welcoming outdoor space and open sightlines toward the water below! Inside, the main level opens around a central staircase, creating an easy flow between living and kitchen spaces filled with natural light from oversized windows. The eat-in kitchen features white cabinetry, generous counter space, backyard views, and direct access to the patio, while the adjacent living area centers around a wood-burning fireplace wired for surround sound. Hardwood floors run through much of the home, and hardwood has been observed beneath carpet in select bedrooms, offering potential for future updates! The main level includes 3 bedrooms, including a primary suite, and 2 full baths, along with MAIN FLOOR LAUNDRY with storage and an extra refrigerator for everyday convenience. The lower level offers additional flexibility and storage, ready for finishing or creative use. A spacious covered rear patio with a vaulted ceiling, lighting, and ceiling fan creates a cozy outdoor living space – accesbile from the kitchen, enclosed bonus space, and oversized garage, along with additional parking available behind the home. The OVERSIZED GARAGE addition is a true standout – featuring epoxy floors, 220V electrical service, ideal for workshop use, hobbies, or future EV charging. The original garage was intentionally left intact when the oversized garage addition was built and now serves as an enclosed bonus space connecting the home to the attached garage, offering valuable square footage ready for finishing to suit your needs. Homes in this pocket rarely come available, offering an incredbile opportunity to personalize a property with great bones in a peaceful lake setting. PASSED St. Louis County occupancy!
