10 YEAR TAX ABATEMENT! Seller is open to property trades or possible partial owner financing. You'll immediately fall in love with this masterful renaissance of a turn-of-the century classic. Great care was taken in the preservation of some of the historic detail integrated with exceptional craftsmanship to add new 'vintage elements', all packaged in a new open plan to meet today's living preferences. This is an exquisite from-the-studs remodel with R40 ceiling, R19 wall spray-foam insulation (2nd floor and up), original oak flooring, trim, pocket door, staircase and picture rails. New 2nd & 3rd floor windows, roof and all-new baths on all floors. Some lime-wash brick wall accents. A limestone wrap-around porch leads to the original 1900 entrance door complete with original vintage brass lockset and hinges. First-floor windows were retained for their historic significance and their vintage, wavy, blown glass. Crisp, white, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, work island with farm sink, gourmet cook area and wine bar make for a stand-out kitchen built for entertaining with its accessibility to the dining and living areas. All baths feature eye-popping tile-work and fixtures. The 2nd floor includes the master bedroom, master bath shower with seating and a convenient laundry cove. New paving leads to the two-story garage at the rear of the property which shares its frame with the adjacent home's garage and is separately metered with dedicated 200 amp service. The second floor has been finished as a great room with bamboo flooring, plumbing stub-in and electrical feeder, ready for central air conditioning and additional electrical requirements. This second floor space is a full 25' X 25' footprint and could be finished as a great Accessory Dwelling Unit. Walk 2 blocks to the newly renovated Kansas City Museum (Corinthian Hall) with it's café and soda fountain. Stroll Concourse Park and enjoy its huge fountain--summer and winter. Just 5 minutes to downtown and the City Market.
