Pick of the Week: Rare Street-Level Kansas City Crossroads Loft for for Sale

A pal of mine is selling her super deluxe Crossroads Loft, and it is such a special property that I wanted to share it with you. It is not currently listed with a real estate brokerage, but she welcomes all qualified buyers and agents to inquire. The asking price is $529,000, and it located in the W Lofts development, a boutique 15-unit condominium building of all-custom units originally developed in 2005. This rare ground-floor loft-style condominium boasts an open floorplan, 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and over 2000 square feet of living space. The full details can be found on her website, but, in brief, the special features include: 3 parking spaces, a special energy efficient heating and cooling system including a pellet stove, custom storage, exposed brick, and a super cool new home automation system.

The property itself is extraordinary, but one of the most exciting features of this loft is the neighborhood and street where it is located. This block of West 18th Street is the cultural hub of the Crossroads; walk down the street any day, and you will see artists, musicians, spectacle, and interesting people, sights and sounds. This block is brimming with life and creativity, but most especially on First Fridays, during Mardi Gras, and the West 18th Street Fashion Show. You will be able to host gallery parties inside or out, because this place has not one, but two front porches.
