About this property

Historic Home in the Heart of the City

Built in 1916, my Over/Under duplex in the heart of the city is also on the National Historic Register. You'll enjoy the convenient location between Downtown, Plaza and Westport. You'll enjoy the soft beds, quality linens, ironed pillow cases and tons of natural light. There's plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the treetop views from your sun room or the large, private deck. There's always fresh ground coffee, tea and 1/2&1/2 as well as a fully equipped kitchen. You’ll feel rested and relaxed in this light filled, airy space but still be close enough to enjoy all the attractions of the City.

The location is great as it only took 15-20 minutes at most to get anywhere. The 2nd floor apartment is spacious and has everything you need. The house is old and floors are very squeaky, so heads up there. The kitchen has everything and host has coffee and creamer there for you.

It was an excellent place to stay. The door code was changed to our phone #s which was super convenient. First time that had happened. Communication was great. Parking at GEHA Stadium was abysmal and honestly shocked a pro stadium was that unorganized and unprofessional

Great stay and a great owner

This property was perfectly located for all of our trip. We were 10 minutes from everything. It was decorated very nicely and the beds were comfortable. The owner was great with communication and he was even nice enough to drop us off at the Chiefs game. We highly recommend this place.

Jon has a beautiful 2 nd story VRBO in the historical Hyde Park neighborhood. The beds are very comfortable, nice porch,and spacious bedrooms and common area. Absolutely loved walking to Starbucks each day, looking at the historical homes and walking to such sites as the Thomas Benton House. I would highly recommend this property.

Great Hideout in Hyde Park Area

We had a delightful stay here for a Summer week during a visit to the Kansas City area. The host was terrific in communicating, in offering tips and suggestions, and in stocking the property with all the necessary things. Close to museums, the streetcar line, nightlife, and SOOO many BBQ options, the property was a perfect place for adventures each day. We certainly enjoyed our first visit to Kansas City, and look forward to a return some day; we still have some BBQ joints to visit!

Great for Business Travelers Too!

I usually stay in hotels in the area when I am there for work, but I decided to try this property. It made my stay feel more like home! It is in a great area, is comfortable, and has lots of great food options in the area (both for delivery and to go out to eat). Jon and Courtney are very helpful and accommodating.
