Kansas City, MO 64113 1212 W 69th Street

Welcome to the home I fondly call "Kemper House". Originally owned by R. Crosby Kemper Jr. and Cynthia Warrick Kemper, (namesakes and co-founders of the Kemper Museum of Modern Art) the Kemper family is one of the most philanthropic families in Kansas City. R. Crosby Kemper Sr. is the namesake of Kemper Arena. The original wood shake roof was found underneath the existing, worn out composition roof and was fully replaced with a new, modern composition roof along with new gutters in 2023. The kitchen was fully remodeled into a modern kitchen with all new cabinetry, counters and appliances. The primary suite, which consisted of two partial bathrooms was remodeled into a single, fully modern bath. The extensive brick paver patio in back had been completely overgrown by giant yew plans and has been fully revealed. The back yard was fully overgrown and has been restored. But, much has also also been preserved. The original siding and windows have been painted, but preserved. The original doors and as much hardware as possible has been preserved. The original hardwood floors found throughout 90% of the home have been fully refinished into a modern, walnut color. Located in a stellar neighborhood, just off the incredible Ward Parkway, this is truly one of the most unique home buying opportunities in the Kansas City area.
