Charming Historic Home in the Independence Truman Home Historic District - If only the WALLS COULD TALK!
Step into history with this beautifully preserved two-story home, located in the prestigious Independence Truman Home Historic District. A true gem, this home has a rich past—Harry Truman himself visited here! The parlor adorns the original pocket doors that separate the large family room for privacy.
While thoughtfully updated for modern living, the home retains its historic charm with original wood doors, flooring, and hardware. The updated kitchen boasts quartz countertops, new cabinetry, stylish flooring, bar seating, and a charming butler’s pantry. Two staircases lead to the second floor, where you'll find two beautifully renovated full bathrooms. A versatile room off the upstairs bath could be transformed into the ultimate dressing room.
Every update has been completed with care and approved through historical preservation standards. Electrical systems have been fully updated, ensuring peace of mind. Adding to the home's charm, a Hallmark movie was even filmed in a home just down the street!
The current owner poured love and dedication into this home, and now it’s your turn to make it yours. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history with modern comforts. Don’t miss out—schedule your showing today! Only Pre-Qualified buyer's for showings.
