Summary:

Welcome to The Charles. This house just underwent a major renovation in early 2021 including all new bathrooms, kitchen appliances, paint, flooring and lighting.  It is absolutely gorgeous and inviting and the perfect place to call your home away from home!



The Space:

This unique home on the west edge of the Country Club Plaza, was designed by the late Kansas City artist Dixie Glenn and built by her husband Charles. They used to enjoy sitting on the side deck of the house every late afternoon having a glass of wine and watching all of the people come and go from The Plaza. Fortunately this house has ample parking in the driveway and the 2 car garage because parking is a premium in this area due to how close it is to all of the shops.



The spacious two-story great room is the focal point of the home. The great room features many windows, and a smart TV. A home office area is on one side of the great room, making it perfect to work away from home. The office walks out to a patio overlooking a fishpond and private backyard. Also overlooking the pond is the main floor bedroom with its king size bed and full bathroom. Included is a washer and dryer.



The beautiful full-size kitchen is stocked with dishes and appliances if you should choose to make your own meals. The kitchen utilizes a turn of the century soda fountain counter and stools re-purposed from a drug store from Holton, Kansas. Spend your late afternoon sipping your favorite beverage on the east deck and watch passersby walk their dogs to the dog park just 3 blocks west of the home.



The Studio Bedroom on the second floor has two queen beds and another other upstairs bedroom has a king bed, both with their own Smart TV's and full bathrooms. High speed internet Wi-Fi is available at no additional charge.



Enjoy our game room, which has an air hockey table and it's own 55 Smart TV and bar top.



The home is a great get away for family and friends or can accommodate a busy business traveling party who wants to be within easy walking distance of the vibrant night life of the Country Club Plaza.



We understand the importance of great hospitality. Please enjoy our home and we will be happy to help with anything throughout your stay!

    The place was well located about .5 mile from many plaza locations… walkable. The listing is exactly what is seen in the pics. It really met our needs. The host was very responsive Thanks for a great home!!!!

    This property is described as “lux”, but mattresses are thin and old; not comfortable at all. Not as advertised!

    The house and location near the plaza fit our needs. There were issues trying to get into the home on our scheduled date requiring a call to VRBO after several calls and texts to the owner. There were issues with the dishwasher, which again required multiple texts to the owner and a delayed response of over 12 hours.

    This was a lovely home. All of the furnishings were in great shape and looked exactly like the pictures. My only suggestion to get it all the way to 'luxury would be to update the linens and the mattresses. They were very clean and perfectly acceptable but in my opinion did not meet the standard for luxury! We slept in the downstairs King and the bed was really worn out.However - we loved our stay overall and we would choose it again if it were available. I would just choose another bedroom! :)

    We stayed here for our son’s wedding weekend. The location was great and the space in the house worked perfect for us! Was a great place for the groomsmen to get together before the wedding.

    Please do not stay at this property. It smells like human sewage and the host doesn't care. We arrived for a 2-night stay to see the Chiefs/Bills with our kids. It was an early Christmas present for our family. We walked in and the house smelled overwhelmingly like artificial air freshener. We removed the plug-ins--that smell gives us all a headache--and went out for a walk. When we returned to the property, the artificial smell had been replaced with the smell of human waste. We immediately contacted the host, via the VRBO app, but he was nonresponsive. Concerned about the noxious odor, we contacted the fire department. Upon arrival, they confirmed the sewage smell, but could not locate the leak. We texted/called the host again; again, no response. Because the smell was making us all feel nauseous and dizzy, we decided to move to a hotel and request a refund from the host. At 11am the next morning, the host responds that there is no issue-his plumber has confirmed-and he will not issue a refund. In subsequent conversations, the host has called us liars and told us to get lawyers involved. Perhaps the smell did disappear; we wouldn't know, we were at the Chiefs game and the antagonistic conversations with the host did not make us feel safe to return to the property. The number of air fresheners in the house leads us to believe the sewage smell is a persistent problem. There are many other nice homes on the Plaza. You don't need to choose one with an apathetic host.
