South City Living at Its Best: 3946 Folsom Avenue header image.

This 2-bed, 2.5-bath townhouse in Botanical Heights brings together the best of South City living: brick charm, modern updates, and a location that puts you minutes from everything St. Louis loves.

Built in 2005 and meticulously maintained by its original owner, this home feels fresh, functional, and totally move-in ready. Bright main-level living, custom plantation shutters, and an easy-flow eat-in kitchen set the tone for everyday comfort. Step out back for low-key evenings or weekend hangs in your private yard space. Upstairs, you’ll find a flexible loft (hello home office or cozy lounge), two spacious bedrooms, and a primary suite with its own bath. Laundry is conveniently right where you need it, on the bedroom level.

Big wins? Already done for you:

  • New roof (2019)
  • Brand-new windows (2026)
  • Security system + all appliances included
  • Oversized rear-entry 1-car garage

Plus, a basement ready for storage now or future finishing later.

Location = Everything 📍

You’re tucked right near some of the city’s best spots:

  • Coffee at The Mud House
  • Ice cream at Clementine’s Naughty & Nice Creamery
  • Craft beer at Urban Chestnut Brewing Company
  • Dinner at Eleven Eleven Mississippi
  • Burgers at Bailey's Range


Plus weekends at Tower Grove Park, blooms at the Missouri Botanical Garden, and everything outdoors at Forest Park.

The vibe

This is the kind of place you move into and instantly feel at home. Low maintenance. High walkability. South City energy with a calm, residential feel!
