Ex-Blues winger sells Frontenac home to Peabody exec

by Bart Raymond, published Nov. 28, 2007

Former St. Louis Blues right winger Bill Guerin and his wife, Kara, sold their six-bedroom, 7.5 bath in Frontenac at 32 Countryside Lane for $2.4 million to Roger B. Walcott Jr. on Oct. 16.

Jiggs Dunn of Prudential Alliance Realtors listed the 7,678 square foot home for $2.625 million.

The Guerins bought the home for $2.525 million in Aug. 2006, a month after the Blues signed Mr. Guerin to a one-year, $2 million deal. He was then traded to the San Jose Sharks last February on the eve of the NHL trading deadline.

He was named to the 2007 All-Star game to represent the Blues.

This season the 37-year old Massachusetts native is playing closer to home, suiting up for the New York Islanders. The Islanders are Guerin's eighth team over a 16-year career that has seen him score 369 goals and tally 361 assists.

Mr. Walcott is the Executive Vice President of Strategy and Business Services at Peabody Energy Corp., the world's largest private-sector coal company. He's been with the company since 1998 when he joined as an executive VP from the Boston Consulting Group where he was a senior VP.

Mr. Walcott earned a M.B.A. from the Harvard Business School.

Home sales in Frontenac are up 29 percent through September of 2007 versus the same time period last year. Median sale prices, however, are off 25 percent to $605,000. Despite the drop, Frontenac still boasts the fifth highest median sale price in St. Louis County, behind Huntleigh, Ladue, Town & Country and Clarkson Valley.

Other than dips in 2000 and 2002, median home sale prices in Frontenac have risen steadily since BlockShopper Metrics began keeping track in 1999.
