Blackburn Villa. A Spanish Mission Revival built on the old McElroy place near Rensselaer, MO in 1911 by Warren and Estella McElroy of St. Louis, MO. Mr. McElroy was the president and CEO of Brown Shoe Co. and built a summer home for his family and friends. Resting on 22 beautiful acres this home needs some TLC to get it back to it's original elegant beauty. The home is currently gutted with all of the old plaster and lathe removed but the bones are still good and this could once again be a glorious home. It is currently framed as a 4 bedroom 2 bath home with a kitchen, dining room, 2 sleeping porches and one sun porch. Some beautiful built-ins with lead glass remain with the house. The home also features a swimming pool with 2 dressing rooms and a 4 car garage with an upstairs loft. Beautiful oak, maple and poplars line the lane to the main house as well as antique electric lamp posts that at one time were gas lit lamps. The home was built for entertaining, the porte-cocher brings guests into one large room with 2 working woodburning fireplaces at both ends. This is truly an classic estate and could be something very special for someone with either the time, energy and money to make it work.
