Perched above the pond at Loose Park, 239 W 52nd Street offers one of Kansas City’s most iconic and picturesque settings—where front-row views of the water, winding paths, and daily sunsets create a lifestyle unlike any other.
Originally built in 1915 and expanded in 2011, this stately three-story residence blends timeless architecture with thoughtfully designed living spaces. This offering includes both the home and the adjoining lot—sold together as one extraordinary property.
Inside, you’ll find six bedrooms, four and a half baths, zoned HVAC, and a rare three-car basement garage. The expansive kitchen and family room open to a resort-style outdoor retreat featuring a gunite pool, hot tub, built-in outdoor kitchen, and beautifully maintained gardens with dedicated herb and vegetable beds.
The third floor includes a vaulted theater/family room, two bedrooms, and a full bath. A hidden bonus room with rustic décor and a working Buck stove—accessed via secret bookcase door or spiral staircase from the primary suite—offers a cozy, one-of-a-kind escape.
Two heated patios extend the seasons: one overlooking Loose Park’s pond, the other bordering a privately owned neighborhood ball field—a beloved local landmark included with the sale. This field, recently separated by lot split, continues to host community wiffleball games and adds to the property’s unique charm.
Located just minutes from the Country Club Plaza, this exceptional estate combines historic character, modern comfort, and unmatched surroundings in one of Kansas City’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Sale includes both the residence and the adjoining lot.
