The duplex was originally built as a house in 1924. During the 1940's it was converted to the duplex it is today. These conversions were fairly commons so that people could make extra money as their children moved away. William and Seft acquired this property a few years ago and carried out a complete renovation. The apartment is 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

In this community you're within walking distance to parks, a short drive to Kansas City's main attractions (museum, shopping, bars, etc.) The Troost Max bus is just steps away and can get you downtown with only a few stops.
Just one block away is the Troost MAX which travels from downtown to the Crossroads district, Hospital Hill and south along Troost to Bannister. Troost MAX offers local service south of 75th Street. Other major destinations include the East Village development (currently under construction), Discovery Center, UMKC Hospital Hill and Main Campus, Rockhurst University, The Landing, Truman Medical Center, and Children’s Mercy Hospital. Park and Rides are located at 31st & Troost, 95th & Troost, and the Bannister & Hillcrest area.

This was the perfect place for an extended stay. My friend and I each had our own bathrooms attached to our bedrooms with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, and a kitchen filled with all the utensils we needed. If a question ever came up, William was quick to reply and figure out a solution. I spent a lot of time hanging out on the front patio's porch swing and walking to the art museum nearby - lovely amenities that I did not read closely enough to anticipate!
