Once an abandoned early-1900s church, this breathtaking property at 1034 South Kingshighway Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63110 has been reborn through a visionary transformation by renowned artist Nabil Mousa. Every inch of this residence is a testament to design, craftsmanship, and imagination — blending history, art, and modern luxury into… Read More a one-of-a-kind home that simply cannot be replicated. Inside, a soaring 25-foot sanctuary ceiling immediately commands attention, its intricate architecture accentuated by a rich black stain that adds depth and drama preserving the building’s historic elegance. Three statement chandeliers illuminate the space, creating a breathtaking focal point that bridges the structure’s past and present. A stunning TV room, enclosed by custom iron and glass walls and doors, adds a sophisticated and contemporary edge to the space. The room is fully soundproof, offering privacy and comfort, and features a 12-foot glass wall with sliding doors that opens to the private outdoor area — creating an exceptional flow between indoor and outdoor living. The main level features two bedrooms, complemented by a gourmet kitchen designed for both function and artistry — including a striking 20-foot island, custom cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and a wet bar perfect for entertaining. Upstairs, the master suite and spacious loft offer a private retreat, highlighted by a custom railing and stair case designed by Nabil Mousa. Original exposed beams in the entryway, library, and one of the bedrooms celebrate the building’s craftsmanship, while new hardwood floors, tile, and refined finishes bring a sense of modern sophistication to this architectural masterpiece. Every element of this home has been renewed — from the roof and structural beams to the HVAC systems (8 units), three-phase electrical panel, and flooring that was completely leveled after a 19” tilt adjustment. The property also boasts new windows, gutters, doors, bathrooms, and a custom kitchen, combining elegance with practicality. The lower level (7,000 sq. ft.) has been reimagined into an extraordinary creative and functional space — featuring a wine cellar, artist studio, vertical garden, two gallery spaces, three offices, and multiple additional rooms with limitless potential. Outside, a 2,800 sq. ft. backyard offers endless possibilities for a private outdoor oasis — complete with two custom shipping containers, ideal for a future outdoor kitchen, bar, or lounge area. A 9-foot custom iron privacy fence encloses the property, complemented by extensive tuckpointing and stone restoration that celebrate the building’s original craftsmanship. With 11 parking spaces, this home balances luxury, artistry, and functionality effortlessly. Located just two blocks from Forest Park, one of the nation’s largest urban parks, residents enjoy access to over 1,400 acres of cultural and recreational amenities, including three golf courses, world-class museums, The Muny outdoor theatre, the St. Louis Zoo, and countless walking trails and dining options. Minutes from the Central West End, downtown, and major hospitals, this home offers the perfect balance of serenity and city living. This is more than a home — it is a living work of art, meticulously restored and reimagined for those who see beauty not just in architecture, but in vision. Read Less
