About Kansas City Mansion
Our Story
In 2022, Husband and Wife team Chris Johnson and Megan Duma purchased 511 Gladstone Blvd., with the vision to restore, preserve, and share one of Kansas City's most beautiful historic architectural treasures. That dream came true in the fall of 2024, when they finished the restoration and are able to host families and friends to stay over night (up to 13) and an additional 33 guests (46 total) for micro-weddings, corporate events, and other gatherings. Chris and Megan were married at the home in October 2024.
About The Home
Historic: Est. 1889
Kansas City Mansion was built to be the home o Loring Craig in 1889. Craig was a sandman who had a business drudging and selling sand from the Missouri River.
Renovated: Est. 2024
KC’s only micro-event space and airbnb where you are welcome to stay and celebrate intimate events in a historic mansion and Victorian gardens. Discover the perfect blend of grandeur and comfort in this expansive five-bedroom, six-bathroom home, ideal for those who dream big!
Fully renovated in 2024, the KC Mansion defines timeless elegance with all of the modern comforts. Each of the five bedrooms (king beds) has its own, private full bathroom ensuite.
The third floor suit features a salon-spa with a steam shower, massage room, jacuzzi, and tanning deck. If you’re more the outdoorsy-type, you’ll enjoy our “wild game room.” There you can play shuffleboard, poker, or chess while you kick back by the bar and watch your favorite sports team on the large, flat screen television.
This house is a veritable haven for hosting, with enough room to comfortably fit your entire family reunion, the most elegant weddings, or any other significant event you envision. The chef in your family will be overjoyed with the commercial oven and range and might just whip up a feast for dozens without breaking a sweat.
The luxury kitchen also has a 10 ft. antique refrigerator (for your wedding cake, flowers and all the food) along with a full-sized freezer, stand-alone ice maker, and reverse osmosis filtered water.
Step outside, and you'll find yourself in a Victorian Garden wonderland. On one of the three terraces you can enjoy whirling in a Carousel Garden installation, sit by a roaring fire, enjoy the flow of a pondless waterfall or have a romantic dinner under an antique pergola with a feather chandelier hanging above you.
If you prefer to lounge on one of our five patios, we have a wrap-around front porch which overlooks the garden and a waterfall feature. We also have a covered garden patio and a back patio off of the kitchen. Additionally, we have two roof top decks. One larger one with a gas firepit, and the other off of the spa for tanning and relaxing.
Parking woes are a thing of the past, thanks to ample space that welcomes cars as warmly as it does guests. The generous lot size affords privacy and plenty of room for leisure and outdoor activities, all secured within a gated perimeter that promises peace of mind.
Whether it’s the allure of an expansive setup for special occasions or the simple joy of a secure and sumptuous vacation spot, this home checks all the right boxes. This house isn't just a place to stay—it's a place to live life to the fullest, and it's waiting for someone exactly like you to fill its rooms with laughter and memories. Embrace the opportunity to create your dream story in a home that’s designed to make your wildest dreams come true.
