A rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Kansas City history. Located just steps from the iconic Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and minutes from the Country Club Plaza and Downtown, this stunning 100+ year-old residence masterfully blends timeless architectural character with modern comfort across nearly 6,000 square feet of living space. Originally built by Charles Faeth, who played a major role in the construction of Kansas City’s Union Station, it’s believed that some of the very same materials used in the iconic landmark are also found in this home—adding a truly unique and historical touch. This grand yet inviting residence features 7 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 2 half baths, with most bedrooms offering spacious walk-in closets—a rare find in homes of this era. Elegant millwork, tall ceilings, and warm, light-filled spaces make it ideal for both daily living and entertaining. Outside, the home is fully enclosed by a wrought iron fence with an electronic gate for added privacy. The thoughtfully re-landscaped garden was designed with all four seasons in mind and features blueberry bushes, strawberry patches, herbs, vegetables, and even fruit-bearing paw paw trees, Missouri’s state fruit. Anchoring the lush yard is what is believed to be the largest Magnolia tree in Kansas City. A detached 2-car garage with a studio apartment above adds flexibility—ideal for guests, a home office, or potential rental income. Homes like this don’t come around often—rich in story, full of charm, and nestled in one of the city’s most desirable locations.
