If you would enjoy staying in a vibrant midtown area that is walkable, bike-friendly, and fun, you will love this house and its location. I have hosted touring opera singers, traveling health workers, students on internships, executives on short-term assignments, new grandparents in town to help with the baby, and professional athletes (a KC Royals pitcher and a KC Chiefs offensive lineman, along with their families). We've hosted people who needed a place while their own home was being remodeled, as well as people who are new to the area and needing a temporary "landing place."
Our guests have appreciated the convenience and style of this charming home in Westport. If there is anything that needs attention while you are staying at the house, the professional property management team is just a phone or text away. They are available 7 days a week.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Rachel Donovan
I'm from the Kansas City area originally. I purchased this home in 2014 as a second home. Over the summer I've remodeled and furnished this home with the utmost care. Meanwhile I have 9 years of experience hosting a furnished apartment rental in San Francisco. I understand what guests need when they are only here for a short while.
I truly enjoy decorating and making a place feel like home. I hope this is something you'll be able to appreciate when you stay at my little house in Old Westport.

Why they chose this property
It's very important to me to live in a place where I can walk to places-- grocery store, parks, museums, restaurants, library, bank, cafes, etc. At this little house, I have all of that, and more. My family members and long-time friends live nearby. It's such a wonderful feeling to have purchased a place that is right where I came from and right where I want to be. I've had a lot of fun remodeling this house and setting it up with custom furniture. I hope you will enjoy it, too!
What makes this property unique
This home was built in the 1800s. When I bought it, it was a solid house in need of some cosmetic upgrades. Now that it has been renovated, the house shines with happiness and warmth! If you had seen the house 'before' and 'after' you'd be inspired by the transformation. What I love most about the house is its location, convenient to everything in Westport/Midtown/Plaza by walking, and so convenient to everything else in Kansas City by car or bus. This house is for someone who appreciates being in a walker's paradise ('walkscore' of 91), right in the middle of it all.
