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.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
