Welcome to the historic Kersey Coates Reed Residence. This rare 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home blends timeless character with modern updates, nestled within the grounds of the Kansas City Art Institute and just moments from the Nelson-Atkins Museum, streetcar, Country Club Plaza, and top-rated restaurants. The property includes a detached carriage house with a fully equipped studio apartment—currently a successful Airbnb—and a converted garage perfect for showcasing cars or hosting events. Outdoor living features a fenced yard, private courtyard, and covered patio ideal for entertaining. Inside the main home, you'll find a beautifully updated kitchen, original fireplace in the formal living room, and elegant dining space. The second floor offers a primary suite with fireplace, walk-in closet, laundry, and a stunning en suite bath, plus two spacious bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor adds two more bedrooms and another full bath. The walkout basement offers excellent ceiling height, laundry, and plumbing—just waiting to be finished living space-currently used as a gym. Originally built in 1910 as a wedding gift from John G. Shedd (of Shedd Aquarium and Marshall Field Co.) to his daughter and her husband, Kersey Coates Reed, the home later belonged to baseball player Lynn “Line Drive” Nelson, who moonlighted as underground boxer “The Masked Marvel” and ran a local speakeasy. Over the years, the home has housed a fashion designer and international students. Restored in 2022, it still reflects Shedd’s legacy and Kansas City’s rich history
