Typically, homes located just north or south of Olive Blvd. are less expensive than homes located near Ladue Rd. Both of these streets have a lot of traffic (Olive has 4 lanes with a turning lane in the middle, and Ladue has 2 lanes without a turning lane). Both streets also run the length of the Creve Coeur area from east to west.
Homes priced between $200,000 – $300,000 will almost always have been built in the early 1960s. Newer homes will be more expensive.

There are some ranch homes without basements (slabs) or garages, some 2 story homes and some split level homes in this area.
