This beautiful historic home was built in 1873 by George T Hoagland, a prominent turn-of-the-century lumberman. Its classic Italianate style has been lovingly preserved and cherished by its subsequent owners.

The property was once owned by Captain Landis, a confederate officer now at rest in Mt Mora Cemetery in St Joseph. The home has been a private residence, a church parsonage, and even a doctor’s office for a time.

In 1966 the home was purchased by Donald and Joan Jackson and refurbished to house the large family they were raising. (7 children).

The property features a nice barn, a machine shed, a 3-car garage, and a dressing room for the swimming pool. The pool has not been opened for several years and will need a complete renovation to be returned to its former glory.

The solid brick home boasts 3100 square feet, plus 450 sq ft of unfinished basement, where the laundry is located. The main floor features an eat-in kitchen, a large dining room, a large central hallway, a comfy living room, and a full bath. The fireplaces in the kitchen and living rooms are fully functional.

Upstairs you will find a beautiful master bedroom, including a full bath, another full bath off the hallway, and 3 more bedrooms, one converted to an office. Occupied continuously for 55 years, the home is move-in ready. It has been well cared for.

Located just outside St Joseph, Missouri, a historic community on the banks of the Missouri River, the home is truly rural, but with all the convenience of an in-town location. Ten minutes to shopping, 35 minutes to KCI international airport, 15 minutes to a top-rated hospital, and 60 minutes to downtown Kansas City. This home is a must-see. You will fall in love with it.
