Property Description
One of Kansas City's iconic historic estates, the Vassie James Ward Hill House is a legacy offering in prime Sunset Hill. One of the first homes in the area, designed by the Nelson Atkins architects Wight and Wight, and poised on nearly 3 lush acres, this lovingly restored and maintained fully gated Jacobean manor combines timeless elegance with sweeping lawns, mature trees and gardens, all moments from the Pembroke Hill School, Loose Park, and the Country Club Plaza. A classic traditional with intricate moldings and millwork, spacious yet intimate public rooms illuminated with natural light, and inviting outdoor spaces, this distinguished home evokes the romance of the period while effortlessly serving as a modernized estate for those who appreciate a blend of custom designer finishes, modern comfort, and original architectural details. Enter through the sprawling foyer with gracious mahogany staircase, stunning Swarovski chandelier and original stained glass windows, to find a formal living room with fireplace, dining room, library/office, charming sunroom off the gourmet kitchen and adjoining butler's, plus two powder rooms. The eight bedrooms are laid out with the primary plus two en-suite bedrooms on the main floor, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms on the top floor. The striking basement has a media, and snack room, powder room, playroom, craft room, and sizeable storage rooms. Outside are a Southern porch, pool, a beautiful Carriage House office, and detached four-car garage with large attic space ready for a conversion. A rare chance to become the steward of a truly landmark KC estate.
