Drawing its charm from enchanting Victorian frame houses that were built more than 70 years ago, St. Charles nevertheless offers an abundance of newer construction from the last three decades. These traditional ranch and two-story homes grace tree-shaded streets and well-developed lots. Buyers interested in new construction will find lovely new subdivisions throughout the area, stretching almost to O'Fallon. As the county seat of the fastest-growing region in Missouri, Saint Charles provides a top-rated school system as well as St. Charles Community College and the four-year liberal arts institution of Lindenwood University. Historic St. Charles became host to the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1804 and was Missouri's first capital in 1821, so many of the amenities showcase the elegant turn-of-the-century styling associated with the region's French heritage. Historic Frenchtown, midtown, and South Main Street - hugging the riverfront - are all busting with quaint shops, an antique district, cafes, and popular restaurants. Along with these riverside historic sites, residents and visitors enjoy modern attractions like Casino St. Charles and the new Family Arena with its professional sports.
