2116 N 78th Terrace

If you’ve been looking for a home that gives you the feeling of being in the country without giving up the conveniences of the city, this may be the one! Tucked away on a private, treed 0.55-acre lot, this well-cared-for home offers a surprisingly peaceful setting. Look out the back windows and you may forget you’re in Kansas City at all. The main level offers a comfortable, functional layout with 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath. The kitchen provides plenty of cabinet and counter space, and all major appliances stay—including the washer and dryer. One of the home’s biggest opportunities is the full unfinished walk-out basement. It provides a generous amount of additional space that can be finished to suit your needs—family room, additional bedrooms, office, workshop, recreation area or whatever your imagination can dream up. The walk-up/walk-out access makes finishing the basement especially practical. Outside, the property really shines. A large double driveway provides plenty of parking, while the backyard features a substantial two-story shed with electricity—perfect for storage, hobbies or a workshop. There is also a large stone outdoor grill, making the backyard a natural place for gatherings, cookouts and enjoying the privacy of the setting. The HVAC system has been replaced within the past four years, providing an important recent update. This is a home that has been cared for and offers both immediate livability and plenty of potential for the next owner. If privacy, outdoor space, storage and the opportunity to add value are on your wish list, take a look. It’s not often you find this much breathing room and a country-like setting inside the city.
