This Secluded Riverside Sanctuary Straddles the Beautiful Limestone Cliffs for Which The Palisades Neighborhood was Named.
This property is a rare and valuable treasure and is unlike any other you will find in St. Louis. While standing on the edge of the bluffs in the backyard those with presence and awareness will come to realize that you are not"the homeowner" but merely a steward for this piece of land that you are privileged to occupy for a very short period of time. The Home overlooks state park, miles of scenic hiking, biking and equestrian trails, horse paddocks, and three golf courses. It’s hard to believe that all of this is just eight minutes from Manchester Rd. /Clarkson Rd. yet a world away from the overcrowded developments of West County.
Although we have knowledge of only very short history of the property we do know that, because of the natural beauty of this property, it was once inhabited by a group of Native Americans, then referred to as Osage Indians, and later after the Louisiana Purchase, the property was owned by Auguste Chouteau, a founder of St. Louis.

In the early 1900's the land was purchased by a group of local Saint Louis businessmen and became Rio Casa, a small, exclusive private resort for a group well to do Saint Louisan's escaping the heat of the city for the constant cool breezes that you will still continue to enjoy all summer long. (It really is 10 degrees cooler here than along Manchester Rd just a few miles away!)
But most importantly, here you can find peace, inspiration and serenity.
Bald eagles nest and take flight just outside your floor to ceiling bedroom windows and great blue herons soar nearly 300 feet below your Jacuzzi tub.
You can actually listen to wolves sing in the distance from the Wild Caned Center founded by Dr. Marlin Perkins as you dine outdoors pool side in the natural splendor that surrounds you and your guests.
Every morning you will wake to the sight of unbridled horses running freely through the pastures in the distance as they do regularly. 









This magnificent Wildwood hideaway was custom built just four years ago. This hideaway is truly a very special place that a nature lover will find irresistible. Located among some of Saint Louis’ very best public schools, great neighbors and great place to raise children in a protected natural setting. Photographs cannot begin to portray the natural beauty and sense of inner peace that you will experience standing on the sheer rock bluffs of this natural habitat.

If education is as important of a priority for you all it takes is a twenty minute visit to campus to realize this is really one of St. Louis' most wholesome academic cultures.
