Welcome to 1225 West 57th Street—an extraordinary offering nestled on one of Kansas City’s most iconic and coveted streets. Built in 1929 by Gottlieb Minkin, son of Russian immigrants, this stately English Tudor is a testament to craftsmanship, character, and timeless design. Designed by the renowned architectural firm Boillot & Lauck, the home showcases rich historical detail with stunning artistry throughout.
Set on a lush, manicured acre in the heart of the city, this legacy property combines old-world elegance with modern amenities. A sweeping black walnut spiral staircase anchors the foyer, ascending to a grand second-floor landing crowned by a remarkable oval ceiling. Exquisite Mankato stone frames the fireplace and hearth, while artisan tilework and extensive walnut trim—including original wainscoting—infuse every space with warmth and sophistication.
The main level offers multiple gracious living spaces, ideal for both refined entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The oversized custom kitchen is a culinary sanctuary, featuring new built-in refrigeration, mahogany cabinetry, and ample space for cooking and gathering.
Upstairs, four spacious bedroom suites each offer private baths, providing comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. The primary suite is a true retreat, with dual closets, a decorative fireplace, and an adjacent office or sitting room. The elegant primary bath completes the suite.
Outside, an enchanting setting awaits—lush gardens, a classic greenhouse, and a sparkling swimming pool offer a private oasis rarely found in the city.
This is a home that speaks to Kansas City's architectural legacy and lifestyle—discreetly grand, supremely livable, and unquestionably rare. A true treasure for the discerning buyer.
