This is one of the few 2 story homes in the Ridgewood neighborhood. Originally designed by Ralph Fournier and built by Burton Duenke, the Mid Century Modern subdivision is know for its low slung roofs and cathedral ceilings inside with large windows that accentuate the open floor plans and high ceilings of these homes. The owners of this one renovated to open up the first floor. Its a 4 bedroom 2 bath with a huge master bedroom. They also added a storage room to the side of the house that could be used for a workspace or even a garage if the car is small enough. There is also a large carport with additional storage space.
The 4th bedroom is currently being used as a home office with direct access to the back yard and large patio. The homeowners recently added a maintenance free vinyl privacy fence, new retaining wall, and sodded the backyard.
This house is currently for sale by owner. Please check back for the virtual tour that will be posted soon!

Update: This home was sold! My friends found a nice 5 bedroom home in another part of Crestwood. I wish them the best of luck!

More floor plans from St. Louis City. This time its a beautiful turn of the century home on a hill that was over 3000sf. 5 Bedrooms with a great master suite with walk out balcony from the master bath and a full porch across the back. The home had some recent updates but still seemed to have alot of the great historic charm in the formal dining room, living room and foyer. I was there right at 2 hours to complete the sketching by hand. I find its alot faster to sketch by hand while on site when pressed for time. While I would love to get the entire home on the computer while on site, sometimes its just not feasible. Once sketched it took another 1.5hrs to input into cad off site.

This one was fun, but tiresome. It took forever. Being trained as an architect, trying to do floor plans that are merely graphic representations, its difficult to disconnect yourself from the detail orientedness of good architecture. This one had a remodel in the kitchen adding a sunroom on the back. I loved the modern furniture, and the 1/2 bath under the stairs.
