Remodeled from top to bottom, this home offers updated finishes throughout along with major system improvements, including a new roof, new windows, new condenser, new flooring, brand new paint, new fixtures, and more. The main level features an open, light-filled layout with a spacious living area, recessed lighting, and a fireplace beside the original staircase. The remodeled kitchen includes new cabinetry, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, new hardware, and a large peninsula with additional seating and prep space. Both bathrooms have been fully updated with new tile, vanities, fixtures, and modern finishes. Generously sized bedrooms provide plenty of natural light, while the primary bedroom offers its own updated bath. Outside, the large covered front porch adds usable outdoor space and plenty of character. With extensive mechanical, exterior, and interior updates already completed, this home offers the feel and convenience of a full renovation while retaining the character of an established home.
East Community Team South, located between Troost Avenue and Blue River Road, is a residential and civic Kansas City neighborhood with broad east-side boulevards and a patchwork of parkland edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Swope Parkway & Prospect Avenue corridor, where corner storefronts, community services, and bus stops create steady street-level motion. Swope Park and the Kansas City Zoo act as major anchors for outdoor time and local culture. Housing reads as a mix of early- to mid-century single-family blocks and small apartment buildings, with long lots and mature trees. The landscape shifts from gridded streets to creek-adjacent greenspaces, giving walks a varied rhythm. Daily life centers on practical errands, recreation, and neighborhood institutions rather than nightlife.

Kansas City's residential (R) zoning districts are primarily intended to create, maintain, and promote a variety of housing opportunities for individual households and to maintain the desired physical character of existing and developing neighborhoods. While the districts primarily accommodate residential use types, some nonresidential uses are also allowed. The R district standards provide development flexibility, while at the same time helping to ensure that new development is compatible with the city's many neighborhoods. In addition, the regulations offer certainty for property owners, developers, and neighbors about the limits of what is allowed.
