1523 S 10th St

A late-19th-century, low-rise masonry conversion in St. Louis’ Soulard neighborhood, the building dates to 1884 and contains primarily one- and two-bedroom condo lofts arranged across multiple stories with mezzanine bedrooms in some units. Architectural character is historic industrial: exposed beams, high and vaulted ceilings, tall factory-style windows, and original millwork reinterpreted alongside modern finishes in renovated units. Interiors commonly feature open floorplans, kitchen islands or breakfast bars, quartz or solid-surface counters, stainless appliances, in-unit laundry or stacked units, walk-in closets, and spa-style baths with multi-head showers or deep tubs. Common areas emphasize a sheltered courtyard and gated, monitored parking lot with secured entrance; shared laundry facilities and storage/workshop spaces are also present. Exterior traits include iron-gated access, entry steps, and small barbecue-friendly courtyard settings that support casual outdoor entertaining. Building services and policies reflect condo governance: a managing association, low monthly fees in many listings, pet-friendly rules with some restrictions, and prohibition of short-term rentals while permitting long-term leases. The location is a defining asset — immediate pedestrian access to Soulard Farmer’s Market, nearby parks, restaurants, and quick connectivity to downtown and highways, positioning the property for urban, walkable living with a blend of historic charm and contemporary upgrades.
