Local Group Envisions Bringing New Life to UMKC Historic Epperson House
“This is an exciting step forward for the future of this beloved local historic treasure,” said UMKC Chancellor Mauli Agrawal.

The Sunflower Development Group has secured permission to proceed with a historic redevelopment project involving one of Kansas City’s most beloved assets: the Epperson House at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.


The group’s vision would maintain the rich historic heritage of Epperson House while transforming it for modern day use into a 14-room boutique hotel with a café, small library bar, full-service restaurant, intimate event space and a hydrothermal spa offering body and facial treatments, ancient European baths, hot and cold therapies, visiting practitioner workshops and retreats and other wellness programming.
