(Sold) 6015 Tennessee is on the edge of Carondelet, bordering Holly Hills. Built in 1926, it is a two-story brick home with 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a garage. Move-in ready and loaded with updates (including the super slide showcased in our video), the house is on a quiet street with steadfast neighbors.
Carondelet offers big city amenities with a small town feel. It has a diverse and affordable housing stock including rehabbed historic homes, new construction, and modern city spaces. In 2009, the Carondelet Community Betterment Federation (CCBF) released a comprehensive 21st Century Strategic Plan and related projects are underway on a variety of initiatives. The Carondelet Historical Society also provides interesting information on the neighborhood.
Just an 18 minute walk or a 5 minute drive, Loughborough Commons is conveniently located to 6015 Tennessee and provides shopping, dining, and services. It is anchored by a Schnuck’s grocery store and Lowe’s Home Improvement Center and then offers many national chain options like Starbuck’s, Panera, Qdoba, Burger King, Little Caesar’s Pizza, Great Clips, Firestone Auto Repair, Fifth Third Bank, and other retail outlets.
Less than a 15 minutes walk from 6015 Tennessee is the Carondelet branch of the YMCA. The current owners walk their kids to the pool almost daily in the summer months. The 76,000 square foot facility was built in 2009 and has an indoor water park featuring a two-story slide, lazy river, preschool play structure, zero-depth entry and lap lanes; a two-court gymnasium with an elevated indoor track; a state-of-the-art fitness center and aerobics studio; dedicated senior and teen recreation rooms; classes, camps, and more. This YMCA is an outstanding resource for residents.
And as you will notice from both maps above, Carondelet Park is just a hop, skip, and a jump from 6015 Tennessee. A quick five minute walk and you are in the middle of St. Louis’ third largest park. Established in 1875, it boasts a beautiful boathouse, walking paths, tennis courts, ball fields, horseshoe pits, playgrounds, etc. In the summer there is a free concert series on Sunday nights featuring jazz, swing, and big-band sounds, in addition to Elvis and Beatles tributes bands.
Besides the national chain restaurants at Loughborough Commons, there are many locally-owned restaurants in Cardondelet and Holly Hills that are less than a 10 minute walk or drive. Some popular choices with area residents include:
