from the agent | Located on a more than four acre lot, 5 Huntleigh Woods has a lot to offer—both inside and out. The rolling grounds include outdoor living spaces, a pool and a tennis court. While indoors, you can enjoy the walk-out lower level (including a fitness room and theater) or take in the sights from the first floor through the floor-to-ceiling windows. And it’s all tucked away in one of Huntleigh’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Listing agent Suzie Wells gives us a look at some of the standout elements of the property.

What are the benefits of the home’s location?
This home is located in the coveted and private enclave of Huntleigh Woods. Each home is situated on prime acreage. This sought after location is adjacent to the hub of Ladue and Frontenac, so there is easy access to shops, restaurants and a plethora of public, private and parochial schools.

What are the outdoor spaces like?
This is one of the largest lots in the subdivision, and it is situated on the outer perimeter, allowing for the utmost privacy and seclusion. An exceptional exterior renovation in 2012 included an outdoor covered veranda with a family room, bar and kitchen that overlooks the extensive pool deck, multiple patios and tennis court. The exterior spaces are unlike any other in contention, and the rolling acreage is a wildlife enthusiasts dream, with daily sightings of turkeys, deer, foxes and an array of wild fowl.

What are some of the property’s most notable features?
The home features an open floor plan that is perfect for today’s modern buyer, but it also has the classic elegance of a grand entry with views of the beautiful grounds to the rear. The expansive lower level has more than 4,500 square feet of living space that includes a kitchen, bar, family room, billiards room, game room/theater, yoga room, fitness room and pool house quarters.

How is the home’s layout for entertaining?
Exceptional! The space is perfect for both casual and formal entertaining, inside and out. The entry has floor to ceiling windows in the living room, which is adjacent to the generous kitchen, butler’s pantry and formal dining room.

“This country club-like estate is on more than four acres and offers superb living and entertaining.”
