The Abernathy House: A Masterpiece Above the Missouri Experience the pinnacle of historic elegance in this prestigious Queen Anne Victorian famously known as the Abernathy House. Perched stately on the bluffs with breathtaking year round views of the Missouri River, this 1885 landmark is a rare blend of Gilded Age opulence and 21st century peace of mind. Boasting over 3,200 square feet of meticulously preserved character, the home greets you with a classic wrap around porch and an iconic three story tower. Inside, the craftsmanship is unmatched with original hardwood floors, intricate millwork, and a grand fireplace that anchors the formal living space. While the history is kept alive, the bones are thoroughly modern with updated plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. The second level features a convenient laundry room and four spacious bedrooms including a primary suite with stunning river vistas. Outside, the lush and award winning landscaping is effortlessly maintained by a self draining sprinkler system. A standout feature is the separate Carriage House which offers an incredible opportunity for a workshop, creative studio, or potential guest house conversion. Located in the heart of the North Esplanade Historic District, you are just steps away from downtown dining, Riverfront Park, and Fort Leavenworth. This is not just a home, it is a legacy. Schedule your private tour and experience the most celebrated view in the city.
