| Martha Matilda Scarritt Jones Home. 1890s Designed by Root and Siemans. |
William Chick Scarritt Home 1888. Under renovation. A rare brownstone home in Kansas City. Stones came from a quarry in the northeastern United States. This is how the home looked right after construction with brand new copper and a slate roof.



The scarritt brownstone is my favorite home in town. She is doing EXCELLENT work!
ReplyDeleteA close second is the steamboat captains house. great choices!
DeleteThanks. The Tiffany Mansion WAS for sale... but I don't know whether it is or not now....
ReplyDeleteThis is also my favorite old house in Kansas City. I think I stubled across this beauty in 2007, right before the renovation began; it was quite vacant at that time. A year or so later, I drove by again and was give a brief tour of the ground floor. At that time, the owner said they were going to turn the home into a bed and breakfast??? Does anyone know what the latest news is?
ReplyDeleteThere are no plans, that I'm aware of, to turn it into a bed and breakfast. The couple plans on living in it.
