Jennings borders St. Louis
Jennings is a St. Louis suburb that offers much of what an average homebuyer might shop for. “It’s close to Interstate 70. There’s lots of shopping. It’s easily commutable. It has lots of bus lines and it’s a pretty diverse area,” says Rebecca Harrington, a Realtor with RE/MAX Results and a longtime resident of North St. Louis County where Jennings is located. Nevertheless, with parts of Jennings bearing more resemblance to the City of St. Louis, its urban neighbor next door, it’s easy to understand how non-Jennings residents could view here much differently. “Not everybody keeps their houses up the same. There are smaller homes. Parts of Jennings border the city and might be a little more urban,” Harrington says, adding, “It’s a nice place to be, people are great.”
Ranch style homes with large front yards line the quieter streets of Jennings.
Mid-Twentieth century homes in Jennings
Jennings’ population boomed after World War II. Consequently, today the town is full of ‘40s and ‘50s home styles such asTudors and minimal traditional homes. The median price for a single-family home here is around $55,000, with most houses selling from $55,000 to around $80,000. A basic move-in ready home can be picked up for $70,000 and a smattering of homes in the low to mid-$100,000s are available too. “Jennings has multi-family homes. It has historic homes. Whatever you want, you could probably find it in Jennings,” Harrington says.
Jennings residents can choose from several stores
Jennings covers all the basics when it comes to shops and restaurants. Parts of the community are a block away from Oasis Grill, where you can stop by in the morning for a stack of fluffy pancakes paired with sausage and eggs or visit during lunch for roasted herb chicken. Retail essentials are grouped along Jennings Station Road and West Florissant Avenue, which form an X through Jennings and intersect near the middle of town.

Norwood Hills Country Club in Jennings
Koeneman Park on the north side of Jennings has a lake, baseball field and softball field with trees on three sides giving it a secluded feel. A narrow creek meanders past the pavilion before it slips beneath the planks of a pedestrian bridge and descends. See children romping on the playground’s two jungle gyms, climbing its plastic sea monster or “setting sail” in the make-believe Viking ship. While the park projects tranquility during the day, every other Friday summer night it’s a different story as the air fills with music of the city’s summer concert series.
Jennings is home to Norwood Hills Country Club, which once was knowns as North Hills Country Club. Its rich history dates back to the 1920s.
