2204 Ashland Avenue

You truly need to step inside this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated Victorian to appreciate all it has to offer. This one-of-a-kind home sits on a double lot along a desirable, tree-lined street in historic St. Joseph, Missouri. Originally designed and built by renowned architect Edmond J. Eckel, this timeless residence showcases the craftsmanship and character you simply can’t replicate. You'll be in awe of original stained glass and intricate woodwork, working transoms, embossed tin ceilings, and two elegant staircases. Modern comforts blend seamlessly with historic charm, including four heating and cooling zones and two gas fireplaces. With five bedrooms and 3.5 baths, there is space for everyone. The main level offers a custom eat-in kitchen with a gas range, formal dining and living rooms, a welcoming family room, a private office/den with built-ins, and convenient main-floor laundry. The finished walk-out basement adds incredible versatility, featuring a full second kitchen and full bath making it ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or even a potential rental or Airbnb opportunity for additional income. Step outside to your own private retreat. The large, fenced backyard includes an in-ground pool with a recently replaced pump and liner, mature landscaping, and an underground sprinkler system. A two-car detached garage and ample off-street parking provide added convenience. You’ll also find abundant storage throughout, including a spacious unfinished attic and additional storage and workshop space in the basement. This is more than a home! It's a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history, beautifully preserved and ready for its next chapter.
