Park Farms, located between Ward Parkway and State Line Road, is a residential and suburban Kansas City neighborhood with curving streets and mature tree canopy. Its character concentrates around the Ward Parkway Shopping Center area, where low-slung storefronts, patios, and steady foot traffic set a polished, everyday rhythm. Nearby, the Country Club Plaza’s Spanish-inspired blocks add a distinct architectural counterpoint to the neighborhood’s mid-century and traditional homes. Loose Park’s lawns and rose garden shape the outdoor routine, while Brush Creek’s trails trace a green edge for walks and bike rides. Local pillars like The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, the Kansas City Art Institute, and the Kauffman Memorial Garden anchor the cultural calendar.

Great ranch home on large lot with very private back yard. Complete rehab with almost all new inside of home. A bunch of updates here with a very nice F/P in the walkout basement. Basement square footage is estimated based on room sizes so you should verify for yourself.

R-7.5
BLUE RIDGE
Residential 7.5 District
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.
