The story of this AMAZING home began almost 44 years ago with the grand parents of the current owner, Doc and Shirley. You see this story is unlike most stories, this was about two amazing people creating something so special that they went to the extent of hiring one of Kansas Cities prominent residential architects, Fred Kohlmeyer.
