About 6551 Holmes Rd
Freshened-Up Classic Near Brookside – A Canvas with Character Tucked along a quieter stretch of Holmes Road, this charming, well-built home is back on the market with a fresh new look! Recent improvements include freshly painted interior walls and the removal of dated carpet to reveal original hardwood floors—adding instant warmth and character. Long owned and lovingly maintained by the same owner since 1978, this home rests in a well-kept neighborhood just minutes from Brookside’s shops and cafés, UMKC, and nearby hospitals and schools. The solid structure and dry basement reflect true pride of ownership. Energy-efficient thermal windows and a high-efficiency HVAC system offer long-term savings, while the bright sunroom off the living room provides a flexible space for work or relaxation. Step out back to a private, tree-lined yard with a spacious deck—perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings outdoors. Not a full remodel, but a meaningful refresh—and a great opportunity to make it your own. Move in and enjoy as-is, or personalize further over time. Classic charm, updated potential, and a location that’s hard to beat!
