The dwight davis home and gardens. Built by the founder of tennis' davis cup and inspired by the great country homes of england, the handsome georgian revival home graces three premium lots on st. Louis' premier private street. The home is rich in architectural detail: intricate woodwork in the grand hall and throughout, ornate plasterwork in the dining room, gracious marble fireplaces in the bedroom suites and main rooms and many other exquisite features of fine homebuilding. On the grounds: red clay tennis court, expansive rear terrace and gardens, pool, and carriage house with 4-car garage and guest quarters. The home embodies the spirit of st. Louis' golden age, but it is also an eminently livable home, ideal for warm winter feasts, spring garden parties and weekly tennis matches. A place of elegant gatherings and priceless family memories, this timeless estate is once again available after nearly a half century.
