Active1 / 28Historic character, architectural detail, and an unexpectedly private setting come together in this distinctive 1897 home designed by renowned Kansas City architect Henry Van Brunt. From the moment you enter, the craftsmanship is evident in the grand staircase, rich hardwood floors, substantial baseboards and crown molding, original-style doors, fireplace mantle, and period lighting that give the home a character rarely found today. High ceilings and tall windows bring abundant natural light throughout the main level, where spacious living and dining areas flow easily together. A bay-windowed office offers a bright, inviting place to work or read. The kitchen is both beautiful and highly functional, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, extensive cabinetry with glass-front uppers, generous storage, recessed lighting, and a striking pressed-tin ceiling that complements the home's historic personality. Upstairs, well-proportioned bedrooms continue the hardwood floors and tall-window design, while second-floor laundry adds everyday convenience. Outside, the large lot is a standout, offering generous separation from neighboring homes and a substantial fenced backyard surrounded by mature trees on three sides. Multiple outdoor spaces include the covered front porch, rear deck, patio, and fire pit area, while the wooded property beyond the backyard adds to the secluded feel. A walk-up basement with unusually tall ceilings provides excellent workshop and storage space. Recent improvements include a new roof in 2023, rebuilt basement entry in 2023, water heater and washing machine in 2024, and a new chimney top, cap, and utility liner in 2026. This is a rare opportunity to own a home with genuine architectural history, generous indoor and outdoor space, and enduring Kansas City character.
