I’m a bricklayer and I worked on 20 Upper Warson. The detached garage is two stories with a tunnel from the basement of the house to the basement of the garage. In total we spent two years there. I cannot remember the exact number of full masonry fireplaces that we built but I do remember that everyone of them were drilled and fitted for gas log inserts.
I worked as the special Pipe Fitter for the gas company for these areas, I could always tell how rich someone was by the size of the gas meter I was to install . From CEOs of major corporations , inventors , owners of pharmaceutical empires , real estate developers, TV evangelist and I could probably go on for another half an hour, but I think you get the idea. I was always amazed how these people would spend money , from gold plated mermaid heads for faucets to heated indoor pools, surrounded by a lazy river, I even had one customer who had a wardrobe for heated shirts. It got to the point where I couldn’t take it anymore and I transferred out to Chesterfield so I could deal with somewhat more middle-class people , still getting the occasional home with a bowling alley in the basement.
Excellent video...I love hearing your commentary!!! I can't believe how much you get for your money in St. Louis compared to where I live (Paradise Valley AZ). I was just there helping my son find a home (sorry I didn't contact you, we used an old friend of the family, plus I've been a realtor for 25 years, so he didn't need much help, just MLS access). I think I may invest in the St. Louis market once it cools down (or falls apart), we'll see how the next year plays out. Hoping for my son's sake it doesn't fall much.
@@kathy9399 I was in Scottsdale last year and took a quick trip to paradise valley and it was absolutely insane I loved the scenery and the homes there

Love your channel but you gotta chill with the 'like' 'like_ 'like' . If it was a drinking game we'd all be unalived from alcohol poisoning in 33 seconds

Overhills residence here woot woot! We made the list haha
Heyyy! nice!! 🤠
the equipment at 6:32 is the home theater equipment and it looks like some smart home servers as well as some private servers.
That definitely makes sense
First time viewer. Your very entertaining lol
Thank you so much!!
I lived in STL for 20 years n look at houses all over the country now. 1st house is insane for STL!! More like Miami or LA
Right?? Haha some of these feel very out of place for STL
@@LivingStLouis Then you haven't driven around Ladue, Huntleigh or Frontenac. All the houses look like these.
@@hunterslonelyemptybagThose are exactly the areas I’m referring to here
These homes are nothing like the upscale Miami and LA homes. I'm sorry, they are nice for STL, no doubt, but let's not get carried away here!
19:02 love these contemporary houses, like a big loft
Right!!

You missed the one in lake Saint Louis! I film there often check it out! 🤙🏼
That one's a good one! Just hasn't sold recently!
“Salty air while you get a massage” 😂
Maybe it’s just a trend that’s above my pay grade
Wow! Just wow! Loved #1 - The Castle. But also really liked the last one. Not so massive! Well done!

Agreed! @@AshesOfRoses Both very beautiful but in different ways

2:09 that is freaking massive, holy Schmitt
I did tons of copper work 1705 n woodlawn. Stupid crazy house!
That's crazy!! I'm sure it was wild being part of the construction on that place
22 Fordyce was owned by the NBA’s Bradley Beals. He’s an Stl native who sold the house a few years ago.
Overhills house was ex blues player Tarasenkos house.
Yup!
And it’s Slavin, pronounced with a hard A like slave-n. Bobby Slavin.
@@cl65captain good to know, thank you for the correction
Take a drink every time he says “insane”.
Drinking game edit:
“insane” = shots
“nice” = beer
“like” = water
Still gonna end up blacked out even with the water in there
imagine what these would be priced at out on the coasts especially LA or NYC suburbs
Right?? I'm sure some would easily cost 5x more
It’s usually an athlete, there’s a house in imperial we always thought was Ozzie’s but now they say it’s a race car driver or something
green house is cool
The house on N Woodlawn was sold by the guy that invented The Ferminator.
His wife invented it. They divorced.
@@TheNickHartleycorrect… she was getting pissed because he was blowing through all the money, so she decided to get divorced before he went through all of it.
Didn’t they just sell a whole ass skyscraper for 3 mil in STL
Yea haha the AT&T tower just sold for pennies
The AT&T building?
Pretty amazing what you can do with a crapload of money.
Agree
Fruits of their labor*
@@TyMichRodgers sure
1700 S warson is immense and was on the market for 10.7 mil a few years ago.
Oh yes that house is absolutely huge!!

that’s a fair point I do that a lot when I don’t script videos 😵💫😅
@@LivingStLouisyou’re good! I loved your cadence, vibe, and great video 😀
@@lyd8084 Thank you!!
There’s a lot of old money still in stl
Absolutely! Sometimes more than people realize especially in Ladue
Hey you should contact me ik many more expensive mansions in stl ik all the secret neighborhoods huntleigh woods holds the most weight neighborhoods wise
Omg u sound like a surfer dude for someone who talking million dollar homes really grow up already.
Oops! Sorry you think that!
insane insane 😂
For real 🤣
Well ladue is stl
These houses are not all in ladue...
Which one isn’t?
If the mansion doesn't have the same amenities as the Gamers Ranch. Easy Pass.
Hahaha fair point
Ladue High School comment here!
Ayy love it!!
C/o 2017 was here
I enjoyed the video, but you use "like" too much. It's similar to how people use "um".
Fair point! I do certainly use it that way
There’s more money in Kansas City. There’s obvious reasons why anyone would avoid St. Louis.
Apparently you don’t know the difference between St. Louis and St. Louis County.
