When was 5041 Forest Avenue built?
5041 Forest Avenue was built in 1954, so it is about 72 years old.

5041 Forest Avenue is a home with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom across 690 square feet, on a 0.22 acre lot, per the MLS record for this address.

What is the lot size of 5041 Forest Avenue?
0.22 acres (about 9,583 square feet), per the county record for 5041 Forest Avenue.
Lot size drives what you can add later — a pool, a shop, room to expand — more than the house itself does. Ask Myli how that compares to other lots in Kansas City, or tap Ask a question to find out what's allowed.
Does 5041 Forest Avenue have a garage, a basement, air conditioning?

What are the floors made of in 5041 Forest Avenue?
Carpet and Luxury Vinyl, per the MLS record for 5041 Forest Avenue.

Are there HOA fees for 5041 Forest Avenue?
No HOA is listed for 5041 Forest Avenue, and public records show none recorded on this parcel.
No HOA means more control over the property and no monthly fee, but also no shared maintenance budget for the roof, the street or the common areas. Ask Myli if that trade-off makes sense for you.
