Bring your architect and your vision to the heart of historic St. Louis in the coveted 63104 zip code. This property has been meticulously prepped and stripped, offering a pristine structural shell ready for a total reimagining from the studs up. The architectural bones are dramatic, highlighted by expansive picture windows that add striking character and ensure flood-lit future interiors. Zoned currently as a 2-family, this is a rare opportunity to rebuild historic St. Louis exactly to your specifications. For the Investor: This is the ultimate portfolio-ready blank canvas in a premier rental market. Zoned for two units, the "studs-out" condition minimizes demolition costs and allows you to install all-new, efficient systems, maximizing future cash flow and minimizing long-term maintenance. Design high-end duplex units with in-demand amenities from scratch. Pet-friendly rentals are at a premium; this property delivers with fully fenced front and back yards. Capitalize on the historic location and create a dual-income stream in one of St. Louis's most robust investment areas. For the Visionary Flipper or Custom Homebuyer: Rarely do you find a historic shell that offers this level of flexibility. This renovation-ready gem allows you to choose your own adventure: develop a prestigious, custom single-family masterpiece, or create two high-end luxury apartments for a lucrative "fix-and-flip." Enjoy morning coffee in privacy on the nice second-floor porch, promising private outdoor space with excellent morning light. Both the front and back yards are fully fenced, making it ideal for creating a secure urban oasis. This is your chance to build equity from the ground up!

Leased & Cash-Flowing Duplex – Fully Rehabbed, Zero Deferred Maintenance, Day-One Income 3623 Bamberger Ave in South St. Louis isn't just renovated — it's been gutted and rebuilt from the inside out, and it's already working for its next owner. Both units are leased at $1,095/month (owner pays W/S/T), and the big-ticket systems are already handled — this one got a full mechanical overhaul, not just paint and flooring. This is the deal investors chase: a fully occupied duplex with modern mechanicals and no startup lag. No vacancy to fill, no rehab to finish, no capital reserves tied up in systems on the verge of failing. Just a check that starts the day you close. Property Highlights: Duplex — each unit 2 Bed / 2 Bath (upstairs unit has a bonus room!) ~1,125 sq. ft. per unit Private parking pad in back Recent Upgrades: New roof New windows New furnace & hot water heater (both units) New plumbing throughout, including main sewer stack New bathroom vanities & toilets New LVP flooring in lower unit New kitchen appliances Current Status: Both units leased at $1,095/month each ($2,190/mo gross) Owner pays water/sewer/trash Why it works: Turnkey cash flow — step into a full rent roll on day one Zero-headache addition to a rental portfolio — mechanicals are done, tenants are in place Ideal 1031 exchange or portfolio-scaling buy — income starts immediately South City duplexes with this level of mechanical work — and tenants already in place — are rare. Most "rehabbed" listings mean paint and flooring; this one got new infrastructure top to bottom and a proven rent roll. The next owner isn't writing a check to a plumber, an HVAC tech, or a leasing agent. Don't sleep on this one — schedule your showing at 3623 Bamberger Ave today.

Two vacant units. One rare double corner lot!! A standout opportunity near Holly Hills and Carondelet Park. This solid brick two-family offers exceptional flexibility—live in one unit and rent the other, place your own tenants, or add it to your investment portfolio. Each spacious unit features one bedroom and one bathroom, with estimated market rents of $900–$1,000 per month per unit. Seller-reported recent improvements include updated kitchens and bathrooms, paint, flooring, electrical rewiring, sewer lateral replacement, tuckpointing, some window-glass replacement, exterior trim and gutter work, and deck repairs. With added outdoor space, extra privacy, and both units ready for their next occupants, this is a South City opportunity worth seeing.

This is a group of 6 buildings, two of them will be demolished, so you will have 4 buildings with 12 units and two lots. All are in close proximity to each other. Thee of the buildings were rehabbed about 25 years ago with all new plumbing, electric, windows, HVAC, drywall, and more. The fourth building was new construction at the time. It has 2-4 bedroom 2 1/2 bath townhouses. 7 of the units are vacant and have had some damage from the 2025 tornado. But with the work that has been dome, you will have a good basis to start with. The rehabs were done with LIHTC tax credits, so there are some rental restrictions and the new buyer and management company must be approved by MHDC, which may be a two month process. There is another group of 7 buildings that is also available.

Built circa 1904. The Worlds Fair. A beautiful Gravois Park 2-family property. Spacious, 2-bedroom, 1 bath units; original hardwood floors, loft-style high ceilings, faux fireplace, and large windows bringing natural light throughout the open-space apartments. The property was restored from top to bottom in 2018: the roof, appliances, fixtures, all systems are just 7years old. Modern kitchens with stainless appliances, and updated baths. The bedrooms are tandem and private. The in-unit laundry washers/dryer is separated from the great room, in the foyer area. A nice pad for parking in the back, as well as on-street parking. This is a great income producing property, or owner-occupant. The 2nd floor unit is recently ready for a new owner or tenant. Located just a block down from the heart of Cherokee and its selection of restaurants, shops, and entertainment. Check it out!

Renovated brick two-family in Benton Park West — clean, updated, and ready to cash flow from day one. This 1913 St. Louis classic keeps the character that keeps units leased (hardwood floors, decorative fireplaces, solid all-brick construction) while recent renovations mean fewer maintenance headaches and faster turns. Built to house-hack: live in one unit and let the other cover much of your payment. FHA and VA financing are welcome here, so an owner-occupant can get in with a low down payment and use projected rents to help qualify — one of the smartest entry points into St. Louis real estate. Set in one of the city's most active neighborhoods — minutes from the shops, restaurants, and nightlife of Cherokee Street and Benton Park, with quick highway access to downtown and beyond. Steady rental demand and continued momentum make this a low-hassle addition to any portfolio. Turnkey, rentable, and ready — whether it's your first house-hack or your next door.
