Designed by acclaimed architect Matthew Hufft, this is one of—if not the only—residential buildings he has designed, making it a truly rare architectural offering. This exceptional five-level residence, all serviced by a private elevator, blends award-winning contemporary design with luxury living in the heart of South Plaza, just steps from the streetcar, restaurants, and nightlife. The sleek chef’s kitchen features high-end Dacor and Sub-Zero appliances, custom Alder cabinetry, a quartz waterfall island, and access to a Trex deck overlooking terracotta rooftops and cobblestone walkways reminiscent of Barcelona. The family room showcases custom maple built-ins with a rolling library ladder, metal-clad fireplace, and expansive windows. Multiple outdoor spaces, including a Zen-inspired courtyard and covered, heated penthouse deck with Plaza and downtown views, make this home ideal for entertaining. The luxurious primary suite offers a private balcony, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired marble bath with steam shower and heated floors. Additional features include en suite bedrooms, a heated-floor yoga/gym space, a non-conforming fourth bedroom with custom Murphy beds, bedroom-level laundry, and smart-home technology. Located within the gated Villa D’Este enclave with a pool, cabana, and shared courtyard, the property also includes an attached two-car garage plus two additional gated parking spaces. A rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind architectural home in one of Kansas City’s most sought-after locations.
