The backyard has been completely transformed from mud and straw into a true outdoor living space, now featuring a brick patio, professional landscaping, privacy fencing, and an oversized two-car concrete parking pad. A custom-built St. Louis City garage with an electric overhead door faces the alley, providing both the convenience and appearance of a garage. Additional exterior updates include a new TPO roof, wrought iron front stair handrail and cellar window bars, front and rear landscaping with stone and brick walkways, exterior painting, and a Level 2 electric vehicle charger.
