Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Kansas City’s charming Waldo neighborhood is a home that for 75 years was owned by the same family but the time has come to Sell this home. Step inside, and you’ll find a home ready for your creative vision. The living room, anchored by a fireplace that doesn’t show signs of ever being used, but still over the years cozy gatherings by the family happened all the time. The kitchen, though compact, maximizes every inch. Enjoy breakfasts at the built-in table, or children sharing afternoon snacks, or use it as a home workspace. There are 3 bedrooms, each with a six-foot double-door closets – a rare and welcome feature for this era. The main floor offers two bedrooms, and a full bathroom with a tub and shower, and a linen closet that’s accessible from both the hallway and the bath. The second floor has a spacious bedroom and another full bathroom with a shower. A bonus room lies in a large full attic, that could be transformed into a playroom, a home office, or even additional bedrooms. The full basement, with surprisingly tall ceilings, could be a recreation room, workshop, or used for storage. Outside is a large backyard, that was cared for by a passionate gardener. Neighbors still recall how beautiful this yard once was. While time and health reasons got away from the Sellers imagine restoring it to its former beauty. The Sellers invested in the unseen issues like the bones of the home. The plumbing system has been upgraded with PEX water lines and individual shutoffs for each bathroom & the kitchen. Also the drain and sewer lines have been replaced with PVC or ABS plastic. Safety like GFCI outlets in all bathrooms, the kitchen, and the garage were installed. Even the windows have mostly been replaced with energy-efficient vinyl. Practical touches like the water spigot in the garage and a door that exits to the backyard. This home is being sold as-is, giving a buyer the opportunity to bring this home back to life in this great neighborhood.
