Rare opportunity to own a meticulously updated four-plex directly overlooking the world-renowned Missouri Botanical Garden! Whether you are looking for a high-performing addition to your portfolio or a "house-hack" where you live in one unit and let the others pay your mortgage, this property is a standout gem in the heart of the city. To ensure a seamless experience for prospective owners, one unit has been intentionally left vacant, making it easy to tour the property at your convenience and providing the flexibility for an immediate owner-occupant move-in or a fresh lease at current market rates. Each of the four units has undergone thoughtful renovations, featuring upgraded kitchens and bathrooms, refreshed living spaces, and the significant addition of modern HVAC systems for year-round comfort. Tenants enjoy a truly "only-in-STL" experience, with the ability to listen to the Botanical Garden’s famous Summer Concert Series from their own private balcony or the shared communal patio. Additionally, because there are no buildings on the opposite side of the street, you and your guests will enjoy significantly easier street parking—a rare luxury for the neighborhood. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Alfred Avenue, where the gardens are your neighbor and the city’s best amenities are at your doorstep.

This Soulard 3-family comes with a duplex in the front of the parcel AND a single-family house in the rear of the parcel (3 units, 2 buildings) — giving you two properties for the price of one in one of St. Louis’ most desirable and walkable neighborhoods. The property is fully occupied and currently generates $4,650/month in rental income ($55,800 annually). The front duplex consists of a 1 bed / 1 bath unit currently rented for $1,100/month and a 2 bed / 2 bath unit currently rented for $1,450/month. In the rear of the parcel sits a beautifully updated 2 bed / 1.5 bath single-family home currently leased for $2,100/month.
