Love at first porch swing. Set on one of the most private and picturesque blocks in the Historic Hyde Park area, this 1905 shirtwaist blends timeless craftsmanship with the creative energy of Midtown. Raised just above the street with thoughtful landscaping, the home offers rare presence and privacy with a welcoming front porch that feels like a retreat. Once featured on the 1997 Hyde Park Historic Homes Tour, it remains a beautiful example of early Kansas City architecture. Inside, sunlight pours across original hardwood floors spanning all three levels. Tall ceilings, leaded glass, rich woodwork, and period details define the home’s personality, while the main floor flows easily from living to dining to kitchen. A wet bar off the living room keeps hosting fun, and the kitchen retains its vintage charm with crisp white cabinetry and a classic checkerboard floor. The second floor offers generous bedrooms and a spacious primary suite with its own sitting area. The entire third floor functions as a private suite with two bedrooms and a full bath newly built from the studs out, all behind its own door. It is an ideal setup for guests, creative workspace, or income generating potential with separation from the main levels. The fenced backyard creates a tucked away escape with a brick patio, fire pit area, and space to gather. The dry, spacious stone basement offers excellent storage and workspace for everyday needs. The location delivers the best of Midtown living with easy access to the new KC Streetcar Extension, Martini Corner, Gillham Park, neighborhood coffee shops, local restaurants, and easy connections to Westport, the Crossroads, Downtown KC, UMKC, and Rockhurst. The block itself is quiet and intimate with very low traffic, fewer than ten homes, and easy street parking on this private one way street. This rare combination of history, character, and Midtown convenience makes the home stand out in one of Kansas City’s most beloved urban neighborhoods.
- Directions
- From 71 North, take exit towards Linwood/31st Street, and merge onto Euclid Avenue. Turn left onto E 31st Street. Turn left onto Charlotte Street. Turn left onto E 31st Terrace. Home will be on the left. The one way street sign that is directing the flow of traffic onto E 31st Terrace is facing the wrong way, and will be fixed by the city. If coming from Charlotte Street, you will turn LEFT on 31st Terrace, and that is the correct direction to go down the street.
