CF. Vatterott Construction is bringing a brand NEW plan to our Boulevard Heights neighborhood in South St. Louis. The Laclede will be a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom row home. This is a two story home with 1,866 sq. ft. of living space. The Laclede model offers an ATTACHED one-car garage and an optional outdoor deck area off of the master bedroom that will be the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or to have an afternoon hangout. 

When you walk in from your beautiful front porch you will walk right into the living room. Keep going and you will meet the kitchen which has lots of cabinet storage, a closet pantry and an eat-in kitchen island. Right off the kitchen is the dining and family room so you can stay connected with your friends and family as you move through your home. In the rear of the family room is the door to that ATTACHED one-car garage (attached garages are hard to find on city homes). 

Head on upstairs where you will find your master suite and the other bedrooms. The master suite was a great sized master bathroom and a walk-in closet. In the rear of the master bedroom you will find a door leading out to your (optional) 11’ x 14’ outdoor deck area. City homes often have extremely small yards or even no yard at all, so we wanted to give people the option take advantage of the great outdoors with an outdoor living space built right into the home.

The Laclede model is everything you are looking for in a city home. Not to mention that the Boulevard Heights neighborhood is located in a prime location. Just a few blocks away is Carondelet Park with walking trails and sports fields. It is located about 10 minutes from the Gateway Arch so you are very close to Downtown St. Louis without having to be directly in the hustle and bustle of the city. 

You will love the energy efficient and green features that will be included in these homes such as a power vent gas fired hot water heater, 95% efficient furnace and built to be solar ready. So not only are you saving the planet but you are also saving money! We have limited lots that this plan will fit on and it starts at only $245,500. That's great for new construction in the city!

Two tiny homes are being built in north St. Louis that will be completed early next year and  house people without a home. The final Tiny Houses Project will include three tiny houses placed on a lot in the Jeff-Vener-Lou neighborhood of north St. Louis, located behind Sts. Teresa and Bridget Church. CF. Vatterott Construction feels honored to be part of these efforts to help make a change in the community along with North Grand Neighborhood Services, Rockwood School District, Social Justice 4 All, the Catholic community, St. Clare of Assisi School and St. Alban Roe. 

Each 14 by 26 foot tiny house includes a kitchen, open living and sleeping area, and a bathroom with a toilet, skink and shower. The efforts of these tiny homes is to provide housing for people transitioning from homlessness. The project organizers have said that the joint effort addresses the needs of homeless people in the St. Louis area. The project started with Social Justice 4 All, a group of Catholics and other Christians who are invested in raising awareness of social issues and improving the lives of other St. Louis citizens. 

Social Justice 4 All, connected with students in the Geometry in Construction classes at Rockwood Summit and Eureka High schools to build the first two tiny houses. Each house is 14 by 26 feet and one is painted blue, the other is painted green. A third tiny house is scheduled to be built in 2020 on the same site. St. Clare of Assisi and St. Alban Roe have been involved in the efforts to raise funds for the third house, with hopes to bring other local St. Louis Catholic schools and Parish Schools of Religion on board with the project. 

According to North Grand Neighborhood Services, a committee is currently in the process of being formed in efforts to identify the first tiny home residents. The anticipated occupancy is set for Feb. 1, 2020. Donna Torrillo, executive director of North Grand Neighborhood Services, said that North grand is committed to being present in the neighborhood to help make it a better place for everybody. “The people in the neighborhood are fantastic,” she said. “Our renters and neighbors, we absolutely love them. The people in the neighborhood want what everyone wants — a decent place to live, a place safe for their kids to go out and play. In the country we live in, there should not be homeless people. We are one of the richest countries, and yet we have people living on the street or living in properties that are inadequate. Everybody deserves decent housing.”
