Now is your chance to own an interesting piece of Overland Park history, and maybe even keep it as its current use as a short-term rental! Forty years older than most of the surrounding homes, this one is an Overland Park original, once owned by The VP of Carter Carburetor in St. Louis. OP was young and was offering incentives for “Car Guys” to relocate here in the 1930s. One man took advantage of the offer and bought a big piece of land along the Strang Line Railway. He eventually sold of most of it for other development as Overland Park grew, but he did keep a large, oversized lot where this home still sits. Mature bamboo ensures privacy for the peaceful backyard which also has a flagstone patio and a fire pit. The home is full of character, with lots of great, well-lit spaces. The two car attached garage is unusual for a home this age, and the space above the garage has been transformed into a SUPER COOL non-conforming THIRD BEDROOM with a “secret” door, doubling its size. There are primary bedrooms upstairs and down, each featuring enough room for an in-suite office. There are restored hardwood floors throughout, and the stainless appliances all stay. With just over 1400 square feet, there’s lots of room! Or get outside and walk to everything downtown Overland Park has to offer including entertainment, dining, and shopping. BONUS: This home has been a productive short-term rental marketing on AirBnB for the last 6 years, with very high occupancy and peak monthly revenue as high as $5000 at the current rates. Don’t miss this piece of Overland Park history!
