426 Benton Avenue, Excelsior Springs, MO 64024

If you’ve been waiting for something with personality—something that doesn’t feel like every other listing out there—this one’s going to hit different. Right in the heart of Excelsior Springs’ historic district in the Saratoga Addition, this 1920 bungalow brings together the charm you want with the updates you need: 3 bedrooms, 2 fully redesigned baths, and 1,380 square feet of living space with hardwood floors throughout (no carpet anywhere). The kitchen has been completely refreshed with new stainless appliances and cabinets, and it flows easily into the rest of the home, making it perfect whether you’re cooking a quick meal or having people over. You’ll notice the thoughtful balance of old and new right away—historic windows kept where required, thermal pane updates where allowed, plus central air to keep things comfortable year-round. Outside, you’ve got a manageable 4,792 square foot lot, a detached garage, and off-street parking—which is a big win in a historic neighborhood like this. And the location? Just minutes from downtown Excelsior Springs, where you can grab dinner, explore local shops, or jump into community events without going far. It’s not just updated—it’s intentional, full of character, and the kind of place you don’t come across very often.
