Magic Chef Mansion

"The Carriage House was a beautiful venue for Alderman Daniela Velazquez’s Town Hall Meeting on Tuesday, though a bit chilly. We were warmed be a wood stove which was nice."

"Beautiful historic home in Compton Heights, St. Louis, MO. The current owner has restored much of the mansion and is gracious enough to open it on special occasions. We went for the Christmas self tour last evening. I love architecture and history. Saw the beautiful architecture but there wasn't much history shared about the original family. That part was a bit disappointing, but it was a nice evening."

"This is a must Halloween or Holiday visit! It’s beautifully decorated for the seasons! Fun fact: There is a bowling alley in the basement that wasn’t in the plans of the house. The Magic Chef Mansion, constructed in 1908, is a piece of St. Louis history. Located within the charming Compton Hill Reservoir Square neighborhood, this estate stands as a testament to old-world grandeur. Its majestic presence, designed by Ernst Janssen for the visionary founder of the Quick Meal & Magic Chef Stove Company, is a captivating glimpse into a bygone era. Sitting on two lush acres, the mansion exudes elegance and enchanting. It serves as a captivating backdrop for tours and events, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in its rich history and timeless beauty. For those seeking a taste of St. Louis' architectural experience, the Magic Chef Mansion is a must-visit destination."

"Visiting family in Saint Louis. Went through to see Christmas decorations and plan an event. Extraordinary experience! Far exceeded my expectations. As a luxury realtor, it fed into my passion for historical homes."

"Breathtaking craftsmanship of this early 1900's Mansion. The grounds are picturesque. My theater company held our annual gala fundraiser here both this year and in 2021. Highly recommend the tour here, as well as any event planning. The staff is also lovely."
