Nestled along a quieter stretch of Holmes Road, this inviting and well-crafted home arrives on the market to present a great opportunity to live in an area of more expensive homes at a more economical starting point! Recent updates include freshly painted interior walls and the removal of dated carpet—uncovering the beautiful original hardwood floors that bring instant charm and warmth. Owned and carefully maintained by the same homeowner since 1978, it sits in a tidy, established neighborhood just minutes from Brookside’s local shops and cafés, UMKC, and nearby medical centers and schools. The home’s solid construction and dry basement speak to decades of attentive care. Energy-efficient thermal windows and a high-efficiency HVAC system help keep utility costs down, while the sunroom off the living area adds a bright and flexible space for work, play, or peaceful downtime. Step outside to a private, tree-lined backyard with a generous deck—ideal for hosting friends or enjoying quiet evenings under the stars. While not a fully renovated, this home has seen meaningful updates and presents a fantastic opportunity to move right in and enjoy—or personalize further at your pace. Timeless appeal, practical improvements, and a location that puts everything within reach!
