Elegant Decay

I went through this house the other day up in Louisiana, Pike County, MO. The owner has completely restored the outside, though the inside is still in a state of elegant decay. I sort of love it….though of course, it needs to be finished.

When I was a young boy and when we stayed at our farm over the weekend, my parents took us to the Catholic Church up in Louisiana. I was always a little embarrassed…after staying at the farm, we looked a little homely for church. Well, we used to walk past this house and it was covered with ivy and all of the shutters closed. The exterior is beautiful now. The owner has given a gift to Louisiana of resurrecting an eyesore. Now it is your turn to turn the interior into a showplace! It is for sale…contact me if you are interested.

An Afternoon in Louisiana, Missouri Pike County, MO

Yesterday I spent the morning working on our farm house in Pike County and then I went up to Louisiana, MO for some meetings. It was such a beautiful day and the Fall colors are close to peaking….so hurry and get up to Pike County to look at them this weekend. The Applefest is going on in Clarksville.

My first stop was to look at the super- cool buildings on Water Street that used to be the old water treatment plant. A St. Louis couple has transformed two buildings into very exciting spaces. Both are for sale for a reasonable amount.

This is an interior space that could be a great bar/restaurant.

This outdoor space almost looks like the Serra sculpture at the Contemporary Art Museum in St. Louis. There is a pool in the middle.

In a another building is a cool loft living space.

And look at the view….these buildings are right on the Mississippi…though high enough that flooding is not an issue.

Nest stop was to meet with Karen over at The Eagle's Nest Bistro, B&B and Winery. She runs such a nice business and it is very popular! She is thinking about retiring and her successful business is for sale. Click HERE for more information.

I visited the two historic homes that I have listed:

The old Stark home on 3rd looked beautiful with the maple ablaze!

Finally I met Jim Talley at his listing on Georgia and 7th street. This is an old church turned City Hall turned loft/living space. What an exciting space and only $137,000! Listed by Ted Wight, Dielmann Sotheby's International Realty 314-607-5555 tedwight@aol.com
