About this place

Tucked in Kansas City’s historic Waldo neighborhood, The Walden House blends classic Craftsman charm with understated modern design. Inside, sunlight moves across warm oak floors, soft neutral tones, and thoughtful details that invite you to slow down and settle in. Unwind on the porch swing, or explore the walkable local scene just beyond the doorstep. Rooted in comfort and simplicity, The Walden House offers a quiet pause amid the city’s rhythm —a place to rest, connect, and feel at home.

As you enter, the welcoming living room immediately sets the tone. The plush sofa and two additional armchairs create an intimate setting for conversation or catching up on your favorite shows with the large Smart TV ready for all your streaming needs. The open-concept flow from the living room to the dining area makes this a perfect spot for gathering—whether you’re enjoying a homemade meal, working remotely, or challenging friends to a game night around the table for six.

In the galley-style kitchen, every detail has been considered. Stainless steel appliances, a butcher block countertop, and a sleek white subway tile backsplash blend style and functionality. With a full set of cookware, utensils, and dinnerware, you have everything needed to create a feast—or simply reheat takeout from one of the many restaurants just steps from your door. The coffee bar is a standout feature, offering multiple brewing options: Keurig, drip coffee maker, French press, and pour-over, ensuring every guest’s caffeine cravings are covered.

The main level houses two inviting bedrooms, each featuring a comfy queen-sized bed, soft blankets, and plenty of space to stow away your belongings. Full-length mirrors, nightstands with reading lamps, and convenient charging stations add to the sense of ease and comfort, creating personal retreats for every guest. A beautifully remodeled full bathroom with a large standing shower rounds out the main level’s offerings.

Venture upstairs to discover the expansive master suite, where two snug queen beds provide a perfect setup for families or groups. The ensuite bathroom offers a relaxing tub/shower combo, adding an extra layer of convenience and comfort. With nightstands, lamps, and ample storage space, the master suite ensures you can spread out, unwind, and truly make yourself at home.

Guests can access the home with the smart lock at the back door, by the parking area.
