A once in a generation architectural treasure set upon one of the largest and most coveted estates in historic Compton Heights. Designed in 1905 by renowned architect Theodore C. Link, whose legendary works include St. Louis Union Station, the Mississippi State Capitol, and many of the city's most celebrated Gilded… Read More Age residences, this extraordinary home stands as a rare surviving example of St. Louis' golden era of craftsmanship and design. Commissioned for Edward T. Haase, son of August C.L. Haase, founder of The A.C.L. Haase Company, one of America's largest importers of specialty foods in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the residence reflects the prominence, sophistication, and enduring legacy of one of St. Louis' influential entrepreneurial families. Nestled within Compton Heights, one of America's earliest and most prestigious private residential enclaves, the home occupies an exceptionally large, park like parcel surrounded by lush, mature landscaping and magnificent grounds. The stately brick and stone facade presents an unforgettable arrival, showcasing the permanence and artistry synonymous with Link's most distinguished commissions. Inside, more than six bedrooms and three and one half baths unfold across beautifully proportioned living spaces adorned with pristine original millwork, intricate wood detailing, leaded glass, pocket doors, and architectural elements seldom found in such remarkable condition today. Every room tells a story, preserving the elegance and character of a bygone era while offering an extraordinary opportunity for modern stewardship. Adding to the home's rarity is the original drive through carriage garage complete with chauffeur's quarters above, a remarkable reminder of the property's grand beginnings and a feature seldom preserved in historic residences of this caliber. For over a century, this residence has remained a landmark of architectural significance, timeless beauty, and historic distinction. Remarkably, since its completion in 1905, this storied estate has remained quietly held and carefully stewarded, never before presented to the open market. More than 120 years later, this extraordinary offering marks the first opportunity for a new owner to acquire one of Compton Heights' most architecturally significant and historically important residences. More than a home, 3523 Longfellow Boulevard is a living piece of St. Louis history, an irreplaceable legacy estate where architectural pedigree, provenance, and enduring grandeur converge. Read Less
