Description

Perfectly positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Meadows of St. Jacob, this beautifully maintained waterfront ranch offers the kind of setting buyers dream about but rarely find. Overlooking the neighborhood lake, this home blends timeless design, everyday functionality, and peaceful surroundings into a property that's as enjoyable inside as it is out. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the pride of ownership, inviting curb appeal, and the tranquil atmosphere that makes this neighborhood so special. Inside, the thoughtfully designed open floor plan is filled with natural light, creating bright, welcoming spaces that effortlessly connect the kitchen, dining area, and living room. Whether hosting family for the holidays, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home, the layout was designed for the way people live today. The private primary suite offers a relaxing escape with its spacious ensuite bath and walk-in closet, while two additional main-level bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or a dedicated home office. The finished daylight lower level expands the home's versatility with a spacious family room, fourth bedroom, full bath, and generous unfinished storage space. Large windows allow natural light to pour in, creating an inviting extension of the home that's ideal for movie nights, a recreation room, guest accommodations, a fitness area, or whatever best fits your lifestyle. The backyard is where this property truly separates itself. Imagine beginning each morning with coffee overlooking the shimmering water, spending afternoons fishing from your own backyard, watching wildlife pass by, or ending the day with breathtaking sunsets reflecting across the lake. The elevated deck offers the perfect place to gather with friends, fire up the grill, or simply unwind while taking in the peaceful views. It's a setting that encourages you to slow down, step outside, and enjoy every season. Located within the award-winning Triad School District and just a short drive to Edwardsville, Scott Air Force Base, and downtown St. Louis, this home offers the perfect balance of quiet small-town living with convenient access to everything the Metro East has to offer. Waterfront opportunities in established neighborhoods like this are exceptionally limited, making 731 W. 5th Street more than just a home—it's a chance to embrace a lifestyle defined by comfort, community, and the simple luxury of waking up to the water every day.
