Walkable neighborhood near Country Club Plaza, St. Luke's Hospital Plaza Westport is packed with quirky cafes and pubs, art galleries, world-class shopping and health care all within walking distance.

Brown, a Realtor with KW who's been selling homes in the Kansas City metro area for five years. "You see quite a few people here who are traveling nurses or students looking for a cost-efficient way to live close to the hospital or the Plaza," Brown says.

Bungalows, century-old condo buildings and new luxury construction
Condos and town homes comprise most of the neighborhood's housing, but there are some turn-of-the-century and new single-family homes.

Parkway Plaza and The Tudors are among the newer developments. These luxury townhomes, built in 2019, can sell for up to $1.5 million for two bedrooms.
