Property details
About 425 Riverview Blvd
A beautiful classic mansion formerly owned by Dr. Newmark and wife (built by a banker in 1935) when Chester was just getting started "up on the hill." The Mississippi River is below and on a clear day you can see into Missouri from the back yard. So much to say about this beauty - high ceilings, 4 big bedrooms upstairs, 2 full baths, huge fireplace in the formal living room, full basement with a family room. It's been beautifully loved and maintained by the current owners over the many years they've lived there. Sit in the sunroom off the living room and watch the sunrise. Sit on the big front porch and watch the sunset. You won't find a more beautiful spot in town to do both. Sitting on 2.65 acres, this property is truly southern charm. Come and see the original light fixtures and hardwoods immaculately kept. The slate roof is ageless and requires very little maintenance. New windows 5 years ago; a/c-htg system new 2 years ago. Come feel the Southern charm. Preapproved buyers please.
