Rare opportunity to build your dream home or renovate to your own specs on one of the premier lots in Des Peres. Situated on the ridge of Topping Lane, this exceptional 1-acre homesite measures approximately 145' x 300' and offers a private, park-like setting surrounded by mature trees and established luxury homes. The gently sloping topography and elevated position near the top of the street create beautiful western views and an ideal setting for new construction. Topping Lane has experienced significant redevelopment in recent years, with numerous custom homes built throughout the neighborhood, making this one of the area's most sought-after opportunities for builders and end users alike. The lot offers ample room for a substantial custom residence, outdoor living spaces, pool, and expansive yard while maintaining privacy rarely found. An existing residence is located on the property and will be conveyed in as-is condition, although a renovation to become the "rambling ranch" of your dreams is not impossible. Conveniently located near Des Peres Park, West County Center, The Lodge, highways, restaurants and award-winning schools, this is a chance to secure one of the finest building sites available in mid St. Louis County today.
