Which part of this house was your favorite? let us know below!😊

[@JosephStJames2000]

My favorite part was that random party room on the fourth floor. Wow. Such elegant dwelling.

[@richardromer4676]

I enjoyed your delivery style but please take the time to review some of your terminology. For example, 3 windows in a row are not "triple hung" which refers to 3 moveable vertical sections of windows. These were simply 3 double-hung windows. I'm sorry, but a plank sitting on a radiator is not a window seat! Hopefully, the house will wind up in good hands that despise white paint on natural wood as much as I do! Thank you!

[@ThisHouse]

@@richardromer4676 We're glad that you enjoyed this house! Thank you for your feedback.

Oddly, the countertops and backsplash in the kitchen. Exactly my taste.

[@theidahoan1240]

The staircase! That's the most beautiful staircase I've ever.

[@nancybullock7465]

Thank you so much for that tour. I was heartbroken when I saw that it had sold and I missed my chance to get in to see it again. That was my grandparents house until the 1980's. Not much has changed in it. Seeing it took me back to my childhood running around all of those rooms. Great memories.

[@ThisHouse]

Glad you enjoyed it! We love that you were able to reconnect to your childhood through this video!

[@starduster6687]

My grandmother had a similar Tudor home, and our favorite pasttime as kids was playing hide and seek with so many hiding places. Later I was engulfed in the library with mom's Parlor piano we played on. It sold twice since 1981 and changes were made. It cost grandparents $15,000 and now worth $1 million. I miss the home so much, it became a part of me.

[@bonnehausman2253]

Contact new owners, explain your situation and how much you would love to see the home one last time! Maybe you could gift them an old photo you have of home to hang in their new home! Good luck!

[@lmgtulsa]

What a lovely house! I hope the new owners don’t go crazy and gut all that character.

[@michaelgarcia2024]

So true, they are no different than graffiti artist who has never created anything, so they deface or destroy someone else's work and call it art.

[@juneberry1982]

Exactly what I was thinking. I hope nobody buys it just to tear down all the interior walls and paint everything gray! I hate that! 😬

[@jesuscisneros2555]

Right

If you don’t care for the interior style, please don’t buy the house.

@@lydwinaofschiedam2685 how do you preserve character and yet make it modern enough to live in? How do combine old with new?

I actually loved the 3rd and 4th floor the most with the exposed timbers and trusses and such a huge, open space. It would make a gorgeous art studio. Of course it's all beautiful.

[@ThisHouse]

It really would!

[@iamspartacus7756]

I’ve watched this house tour several times already, but just love the tudor and storybook house tours. This channel is the best, the slow pans of the camera in each room or area really lets us be in the house. Ken’s tours are wonderfully filled with history and architectural knowledge. I hope whom ever purchased this house doesn’t destroy the woodwork or remove all the great architecture trying to modernize .

[@mrs.dawnbroylesiii4904]

I love the built in book cases/shelving as well as hidden doors and passageways.

[@Sewtangle]

The stone on the bar on the 3rd floor is onyx. It glows when light is exposed underneath it. Beautiful!

[@stephenjburkhart6902]

Wonderful house. Hopefully no one will paint the wood.

[@rick0e295]

Has been a while since I visited St.Louis. But loved walking Central West End, especially in autumn. So many beautiful and grand homes. Close friend and St.Louis native told me that at one time many had fallen into disrepair and were threatened. When I visited thankfully most had been lovingly returned to former glory. Thank God. Love your tours!

[@JillShaw]

It breaks my heart to see beautiful old homes for sale because so many people immediately start doing terrible things to them in the name of modernization.

[@ThisHouse]

Hopefully someone will restore it and not give it an HGTV renovation.

[@bret9741]

People only think about the huge problems St Louis has today. It it was one time one of the best cities to live in the US.

Wonderful details and unique layout. So fun to see!

[@evelynbyrd4961]

I cared for a family in Clayton. The elder lady, lived on Berlin Avenue, at the time of The World's Fair. Her father taught her a ditty to find her home, if she got lost. "Forty-five forty-two, Berlin Avenue". She said they went to the FAIR, everyday. She was thirteen. They were there, the day Alice Roosevelt, fell into the Basin, from a capsized gondola. Everyone was so relieved, when Alice stood up. This lady lived to be 106 yrs. Just imagine.

[@Angel-nu7fm]

THANK YOU so much for going slowly around the house so we can appreciate the magical architecture...

One of my favorite houses that you’ve brought to us. Thanks so much.

[@theidahoan1240]

Such a beautiful home! These are one of my favorite types of houses! And it was so tastefully done. The only down side is how the kitchen is layed out. But its to be expected in an old house like this where kitchens weren't the center of attention like today.

[@debbied7035]

? It has always seemed to me that this kitchens in those old houses were very much expected to be functional. No step saver kitchens for me, lol. I grew up in a house of this vintage as most of my little neighborhood was 1900 to 1920.

[@lnelson90004]

Stunning home and one of the rare examples of a historically significant home that has been impeccably maintained with the original architectural details intact. Where I live, most structures of this era have either been demolished and, or the few that survived have suffered some assault of poor remodeling/renovation over the years prior to the changing laws in acted in the 1970's (?). In addition, I wanted to mention how much I enjoy the content your channel provides, showcasing a diverse variety of homes and architecture. Aside from being an outstanding and articulate host, you have an acute awareness and ability with the camera to capture the space and details of each interior which is really important when touring a property because it really acclimates the viewer to the room. I look forward to your upcoming videos. Sincerely, Louis Nelson.

[@betsyh2503]

My favorite room is the dining room with the barrel ceiling, I like the treatment on the ceiling and the secret door.

[@ThisHouse]

That was our favorite room as well! Thank you for watching!

[@NelsonClick]

Oh! So endearing and homey. What a dreamy residence. The flat sill on top of the wainscoting? Why have I never seen that before. What a great idea. I love the utility and aesthetic of it. 😊

[@greensage395]

You have to be very City Minded! I could see such a House on a Greater piece of Land, not so locked in, no wonder there is a Bar!

[@markanthonymarla]

These Tudors are among my favorites, styles of homes ...... Exquisite

[@chuckandmax7313]

What a wonderful house, I love the secret study off the dining room and tha amazing ballroom on the third and fourth floor, you could put an orchestra in the loft and dance in the ballroom below. They did a very nice job with the renovations, I would have loved to see it in its original layout. I wouldn’t use that big closet at the top of the stairs as the owners suite closet, I would use it as a linen room and my office would be that lovely paneled room on the second floor. I wonder how much this house is selling for? Well thanks for another amazing tour Ken, you’re the greatest. Your friends ChuckandMax

[@ThisHouse]

I love how you described how you would utilize the rooms, really makes the house come to life imagining the purposes and parties you've mentioned! Thank you for watching! -Ken

[@fazdoll]

I too was thinking of the third floor as a ballroom with a balcony. However, if there were any kids in the family, the parents should should close off the stairs to the balcony with a locked door. I can just imagine kids climbing all over the trusses and falling to their deaths.

[@rdpj7791]

Loved this tour! TFS!

[@susprime7018]

She's a beauty. Older than some of the rebuilds in Nuremburg. Yes, people were not touting their germanic heritage as much in those days, Saxe-Coburgs became the Windsors, Battenbergs became the Mountbattens and Robert Praeger lynched by a rowdy Collinsville, Illinois mob during WWI. I think the closets may be later remodels.

[@ThisHouse]

Yes, it was a time of paranoia with a lot of unfortunate circumstances arising from fear.

[@georgensal]

Beautiful house full of character. Like someone else mentioned, I hope the new owners don't gut everything so they can do an "open concept" with a huge kitchen opened to the rest of the hosue so they can "entertain"" properly" in the kitchen....Thanks for your videos....

[@lisadolan689]

Oh my gosh Ken. I LOVE the ‘no beard’. I liked the beard before I saw the ‘no beard’. You have a beautiful face hidden behind that beard. It matched your beautiful voice. Your composition, delivery and tempo are absolutely ‘top notch’. Excellent work. You look 20 years younger without the beard. A handsome, articulate, well presented, intelligent man. My apologies for the personal comment, however it’s amazing how much personality comes through without the beard. Love this channel. And because of your delivery, I’m finding myself fascinated by this architecture 😍😍😍🙏❤️

St. Louis is blessed with wonderful homes and wonderful communities. I love what you are doing. I really respect people make changes within the character of the home. The Victorian house I grew un in, had a very similar fireplace cover, minus the gold. Just a little bit of negative , crystal knobs are not uncommon in older homes, even much less expensive ones. I too love them , show them, but please don’t talk about them so much. There is so much to say about older homes. to my sorrow Kirkwood , has in recent years torn down many, many, old homes. Sometimes changing the quaintness of the neighborhoods. I will happily watch whatever you choose. There is a historic contemporary area in Kirkwood called Sugar Creek. It is recognized in Architectural studies. Also includes a Frank Loyd Wright home. .

[@phylmar1]

Lovely example of a Tudor. The woodwork was pristine. Let’s all hope who ever buys this home they don’t bring any paint with them. We have to preserve these wonderful old treasures.

I always saw these Tudor houses as a kid , there's a large 1929 Tudor in my neighborhood from when it was country, but its still sitting on 3, acres, but they were usually white stucco with brown tumbers , but I found out thats very American style Tudor, in England the timbers sre always black
