Welcome to 4215 Genessee Street, where charm meets modern updates—and where your future self will thank you for moving to one of Kansas City’s most walkable, lovable neighborhoods. This 2-bedroom, 1 1/2-bath Volker stunner was built in 1920 and has been aging like a fine wine—original hardwoods, tall ceilings, and huge windows that flood the place with natural light (and make your houseplants feel very seen).
The main level is open and bright, with a living and dining area that’s just waiting for dinner parties, game nights, or overly ambitious Pinterest decor. The kitchen is totally updated with stainless steel appliances, plenty of counter space, and tons of cabinet storage. It also opens out to a private fully fenced yard just waiting for your next cookout, garden experiment, or hammock nap. Off-street parking means no street-parking battles—just pull in and live your best life.
Upstairs has two great sized bedrooms with two closets each! They both showcase incredible new windows so drafty winters are only thought about when you are watching “It’s a Wonderful Life” (and no broken newel post cap here)
Let’s talk upgrades: a brand-new roof was installed this week, so you’re covered (literally) for years to come. A new high-efficiency HVAC system keeps you comfy without making your utility bill cry, and new attic insulation helps lock in that perfect temperature. Oh, and the old knob and tube wiring? Gone. Replaced with modern, safe electrical—because it’s 2025, and you should be able to use the microwave and a hair dryer at the same time. The basement’s been retuckpointed and freshly painted, making it less “spooky storage” and more “hey, I might actually hang out down here.”
Just blocks from the Plaza, Westport, coffee shops, parks, and everything else you love about Midtown, 4215 Genessee is your low-maintenance, high-style home in the heart of it all. Come see it before someone else grabs it and tells you they found the one with “all the updates.”
