Designed by architect E. J. Hess in 1899, the house was first occupied by August and Dorothea Schulz. They were members of the Veiled Prophet, as well as rowers out at Creve Coeur Lake. It is a beautiful house, sited high on the Broadway bluffs north of Carondelet proper.
This house is for sale right now.
Yeah and according to Zillow it can be had for less half a million. Also Zillow has some pictures of the interior. The first floor looks good, but some rooms are unfinished and have been altered quite a bit.
They were my great grandparents. I remember growing up in that house. It was beautiful inside with all of the custom woodwork and just about every option available for that period. We held all of our family gatherings there and could watch the fireworks downtown from the back yard that overlooks the river..
Wow, that’s wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
