Sitting on one of the best blocks in Brookside, the front is highlighted by an arched doorway, original French casement windows, and a classic stucco exterior. Inside, the center hall opens to a large living area with gas fireplace and custom oak built-ins.

From there, step onto the back deck and enjoy a fenced backyard, with trees for privacy, and a private driveway with newer two-car garage. Upper-level has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom & walk-in closet. The second bedroom features a vaulted ceiling and balcony that overlooks the backyard. Partially finished basement includes a laundry area, additional half bathroom, and a walkout to the back yard. Other highlights include: zoned HVAC system; updated electrical panel and wiring throughout; updated interior plumbing; newer roof (8-years-old); thermal windows; drain tile in finished portion of basement. Conveniently located between Brookside and Crestwood shops and Country Club Plaza, and blocks from Loose Park, UMKC, Whole Foods, and South Plaza dining.
