About this property

Boutique Apartment - Walk to Westport, Plaza, Restaurants & Streetcar!

Originally built in 1900, this charming apartment has been carefully restored to showcase its historic bones. Whitewashed walls highlight high, beamed ceilings, while the decor fuses antique and modern pieces with eclectic art. This Midtown getaway is a happy, refreshing and beautiful escape from the ordinary hotel. Tall ceilings, fun touches and a clean palette create an inviting space for you to come home to. If you're here for work - there's a desk in the second bedroom for your use.

This is a second floor apartment - only accessible by stairs. You'll find a fully equipped kitchen to meet your cooking & entertaining needs. Coffee, sugar & creamer are provided (or Starbucks is just 2 blocks away). Access your own TV apps through the Roku Smart TV. Fiber Internet available - the fastest in town.

One of my favorite things about Kansas City are its old glorious buildings - which is why I fell in love with this 1900 Victorian charmer. This home has seen a lot in it's 100+ years, including being converted into 4 separate apartments.

LOCATION:
▪ 10 min walk to Westport
▪ 20 min walk to the Plaza (5 min drive)

This was an extremely convenient and perfectly cute spot! We were in town for 5 days and had everything we needed. This apartment is in a larger house with additional units. There was plenty of parking and folks were nice. The decor is very cute and the kitchen is well stocked. The beds were comfy and the water pressure in the shower was great. All in all, would definitely stay here again!

We came into town for the NFL Draft and thought it may be hard to get around the city but this apartment was less than a 10 minute drive from everywhere we wanted go! Check in/out was easy and the apartment was very clean. We were even provided a list of local attractions if you have some free time on your trip. Would stay again!

Fantastic Apartment in Excellent Location

We have stayed in lots of places, including several in KC, and this place is something special. A funky place in a cool building, it's close to just about everything and a perfect home base for adventures around the city. Attentive hosts without being too much, I would highly recommend this place. My teenager was ready to move in.

About the host

Hosted by Jaymi Zehms

Host profile image
The journey life takes us on can truly be wonderful. After years traveling the world - both through Peace Corps, living in Nicaragua for 2 years and later creating educational children's activities on Carnival Cruise Line on 26 ships over 3 years - life eventually brought me to Kansas City. I've been here for over 15 years now and it's the perfect mid-sized city for me.

My hosting story starts 10 years ago when the gal in the apartment below me moved out. I had recently finished renovating & designing my 3rd floor midcentury space & I thought - I need to renovate that one next! And so I did - which is this apartment with the green couch :) I LOVE good design. I LOVE creating eclectic spaces people want to be in. I've flipped a few houses to do just that, and ultimately that lead me to creating Fountain City Stays where I now manage several apartments & homes in Kansas City as well as Branson.

I love all things design, good food and great fun! I'll be sure to send you my favorites when you book! And even if you decide to stay somewhere else - I'd be happy to share my list of recommendations with you :)

Why they chose this property

Southmoreland is such a great neighborhood - I love living here & hosting here! I walk to the Nelson-Atkins museum most mornings & sometimes over to the beautiful Kauffmann Gardens. Southmoreland is centrally located & walking distance to great restaurants, Westport (10 min), the Plaza (20 min walk or 5 min drive), the new Streetcar is 3 blocks away (Oct 2025)! There's a school soccer field across the street; people walking their dogs; people working on their homes & lawns. You can't beat the neighborhood vibe combined with the convenience of walkability.

What makes this property unique

Built in 1900, this charming Victorian Home was converted to apartments & has been thoughtfully renovated to showcase its historic bones. I wanted this space to feel fresh & bright. I removed the kitchen wall so it could feel open & allow the full area to function as one space. She has some quirks - as any 100+ year old space would ...but to me that's part of the charm :) Hope you agree!
