Home Details for 3940 Shaw Boulevard

*OH 8/27, 4-6pm* Hey, I know we might have passed each other on the block before, but we were never properly introduced...and you definitely don’t know my full story yet. My name is 3940 Shaw. Well, that’s where I’ve been rooted since 1895 in the heart of the Shaw neighborhood. I’m stepping out for a beauty contest, and I’m looking for The One who is ready to fall head over heels for a home with real heart and soul. The number 3 is my lucky charm: 3 stories, 3 large bedrooms, and 3 full baths, plus a main floor half-bath for guests. Taking my stairs is an incredible daily glutes workout (trust me!) AND there's enough space in my unfinished basement for your home gym! Step up to my covered front porch. This isn't just an entryway; it’s your front-row seat to autumn. Picture yourself with a steaming mug from Fiddlehead Fern Cafe (just a short stroll away!), watching the neighborhood wake up, or trading that coffee for a evening cocktail while the cool fall breeze rolls in. My front door is accentuated by a historic stained glass window. Step onto my gleaming hardwood floors, gaze at my soaring 12-ft ceilings, and take in the sunlight pouring through oversized windows. My LR centers around a floor-to-ceiling decorative fireplace begging for your favorite artwork. Flow straight into my formal DR (complete with custom wainscoting), built to host dinner parties around an 8-person table. My kitchen comes fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and pantry. I can provide more peace of mind with a passed city inspection and offering a Choice home warranty. On the 2nd floor, convenience takes center stage with a dedicated laundry room. My primary suite is a true sanctuary with updated carpet (Mar '26), 2 closets, and a spa-style bathroom featuring a jetted tub, tiled shower with bench, and dual sinks. Right off the primary, step into my sunroom with custom built-in bookshelves overlooking an incredibly lush, private backyard. It’s ready to be your morning yoga studio, plant sanctuary, or dream reading nook. My 2nd bedroom features custom built-ins, tall ceilings, and swoon-worthy arched windows that make the room feel like something out of a fairytale, served by a large full bath. My 3rd floor is an absolute masterpiece of flexible space. Carpeted in March and climate-controlled with its own mini-split system, this massive suite features a custom slat wall, 2 walk-in closets, and a large full bath. Whether you need an upper-level primary, an inspirational work-from-home studio, an in-law's suite, or a private guest retreat, I adapt to whatever your life requires. When it’s time to unwind outdoors, my backyard is your private oasis. My current owners added a brick paver patio, fresh landscaping, and a privacy fence, making it perfect for weekend barbecues or late-night stargazing. Living with me means your week writes itself! Your Weekdays: Commuting is an absolute breeze, with easy highway access, and you are also within minutes of major regional medical hubs (BJC, SSM, SLU Hospital, Cardinal Glennon), making me the ultimate retreat for healthcare professionals. Plus, I'm closely connected to vibrant community organizations, restaurants, personal services, and an active neighborhood that makes Shaw feel like a true tight-knit village. Your Weekends: Less than a mile to Tower Grove Park and MOBot, this time of year brings festivals, fun, and food! Grab a Damn Fine Hand Pie, or take a Sunday stroll to Ice's Plain & Fancy. Spend sunny afternoons at the Tower Grove Farmers' Market, join the crowd for Food Truck Fridays, or immerse yourself at the annual Shaw Art Fair. When date night rolls around, Sasha's on Shaw is waiting just down the street with a spot on the patio. I've got historic soul, modern updates, and an unbeatable lifestyle. Step through my front door and I promise you'll fall madly in love.
