Proposed Walker Townhomes architectural rendering, as printed in April–May 2018.
The Skinker DeBaliviere Community Housing Corporation is excited to announce that we are moving forward with presales of a set of four townhouses, dubbed the Walker Townhomes in recognition of the neighborhood’s walkability, at 521 Des Peres Ave, at the southwest corner with Washington Blvd.
The development of the long vacant lot carries out objectives of the Skinker DeBaliviere Urban Design & Development Plan which calls for new residential development on the three empty lots on the west side of Des Peres and identifies adding new housing choices and topologies as a short term priority. The project was reviewed and endorsed by the Historic and Residential (now Development) committees of the Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council. The project secured a variance from the city and approval by the Preservation Review Board. The architect is Design Alliance, located a block away on Delmar, and the contractor is Reicon Construction. The sales agents are Robin Halterman and Traci Stix of Dielmann Sotheby’s International Realty.
Each townhome features a half bath, flexible room, and rear-access garage on the first floor. The second floor has the kitchen, living room, a half bath, and front and rear balconies. The third has two bedrooms and bathroom, and a master bedroom suite. The rooftop has a patio and pergola. The homes share a driveway in the rear to the alley.
The project has been approved to receive Missouri’s Neighborhood Preservation Tax Credits. The homes are about 2200 sq. ft., with a base price of $475,000. Construction will commence once two presales are secured, and we hope to have them occupied by the end of this year.
