Tower Grove Heights (TGH) is a highly desirable area with historic homes that are full of character. Restaurants, shopping, parks, and other amenities are easy to walk to. It has an active neighborhood association. In short, it has all the elements of a great community. That is why homes sell so quickly in Tower Grove Heights. In March we listed two large homes in this neighborhood and both received multiple offers and went under contract the same weekend they hit the market. Let’s look at them a little more closely.
3639 Juniata is a 5 bedroom home that listed for $345,000. The owners had lived there for 40 years and raised three sons in the house. They are moving to live closer to their grandchildren. In their letter to the future owners they spoke about the sense of community they felt in Tower Grove Heights.
“While the neighbors have changed over all the years we have lived here, the sense of community has just grown stronger. We have always had wonderful neighbors, many of which we count as close friends. We and our neighbors have always welcomed new-comers as you will find when you move in. Over the years we have dined out in large groups, had block parties and monthly game nights to chat and have fun.”
3877 Hartford is a 4 bedroom home that listed for $269,900. This young family appreciated the proximity to amenities they had in Tower Grove Heights.
“One of the big draws of the neighborhood was that we could walk to so many places. Weekly walks to the library became a routine, as were regular trips to Hartford Coffee Co. (one block away), which has a play area for kids and a quiet zone in the back for working. We attended wine tastings at Gustine Market around the corner, and also frequented many of the local restaurants on South Grand (King and I Thai and Pho Grand – two of our favorites!).”
TGH residents have very strong feelings about their neighborhood, expressed below in some stories that will give you a feel for what makes the neighborhood so special.
If you are considering the Tower Grove Heights neighborhood and all it has to offer, we will be listing two more homes in the coming weeks. 3850 Hartford and 3862 Juniata. Contact us if you want to receive more information when these homes become available for viewing. They are sure to go quickly.
