‘Work of art’: See inside $2.25 million Jackson County home built like giant log cabin
A home for sale in Greenwood, Missouri, built to resemble an enormous log cabin, features 35-foot ceilings, sits on 41 acres and was designed by a famous Kansas City architect.
The house, located near Missouri Highway 7 and East Outerbelt Road, is listed on Zillow.com by Keller Williams Realty for $2.25 million. It is in the Lee’s Summit School District southeast of Kansas City.
The home features two finished bedrooms and space for two more in the main house, as well as a detached one-bedroom apartment above the three-car garage.
The wooden interior mimics a rustic log cabin, complete with huge logs lining the walls and massive support beams resembling the trunk and branches of a giant tree.
They hold up a catwalk leading to a lofted office and second-floor bedroom.
Among the home’s amenities are a curved kitchen island, 35-foot ceilings on the main floor, a see-through fireplace, a walk-in closet and a back deck for entertaining.
It also features towering windows that let in natural light.
The home was custom-designed by Ron Labinski, a world-renowned Kansas City architect best known for his work on sporting arenas, including Arrowhead Stadium.
Labinski, who died in January, was hailed as “the godfather of sports venue design.”
The property also includes a refurbished historic barn from the 1880s, three pastures, horse paddocks, a three-acre pond, wheat fields and a large garden complete with fruit trees.
The home is located just southeast of Lee’s Summit in Jackson County, a short drive from the James A. Reed Memorial Wildlife Area.
