406 E Arthur ST

Offered for the first time in more than 30 years, this extraordinary 1889 Queen Anne Victorian presents a rare opportunity to own a documented piece of Liberty history.

Situated on a nearly half-acre corner lot within Liberty's Arthur-Leonard Historic District, this remarkable residence is documented by Clay County historical records as a Pixlee family home. The Pixlee family was among Liberty's prominent early cattle farmers and bankers, helping shape the growth and development of the community.

A welcoming wraparound porch sets the tone for the timeless character found throughout the home. Rich with craftsmanship rarely seen today, the residence showcases original hardwood floors, intricate woodwork, pocket doors, a butler's pantry, and the original service staircase. A striking fireplace featuring imported tile, according to local history, serves as a centerpiece of the home.

The main level offers the gracious living spaces expected of a Victorian residence, including formal living and dining rooms, a spacious family room, a sitting room, and a kitchen complemented by both a pantry and separate butler's pantry. A full bathroom is conveniently located on the main level, while upstairs you'll find three bedrooms and a second full bath featuring a charming clawfoot tub with copper shower surround.

Homes with this level of history, architectural character, and preserved craftsmanship rarely become available. Combining a documented connection to one of Liberty's notable early families, a nearly half-acre corner lot, and an exceptional location within the Arthur-Leonard Historic District, this is a unique opportunity to become the next steward of a truly special property.
