110 Dielman Before and After Photos | 2017 Ladue News Decorator’s Show House

They say it’s what’s on the inside that counts, and what’s inside the 2017 Ladue News Show House is quite literally – drumroll, please – a second house. Welcome to 110 Dielman Road in Ladue.

Originally built in the 1930s, 110 Dielman Road started out as a charming stone cottage featuring a pattern of triangles and horizontal lines in light gray. Decades later, a massive contemporary addition was added, but unlike modern additions built onto the back of a home, this one engulfed the property, leaving the cottage and its stonework as the nucleus for the expansive estate.

Today, 110 Dielman Road features four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a half-bathroom throughout its 5,175-square-foot interior. The new exterior features oversize windows framing the view of 2-plus acres of property. Inside, the original stonework abounds, as well as other showstopping design details like multiple vaulted wood-beam ceilings and a cobbled stone-and-marble floor.
