About this home
***PRICE IMPROVED - NEW ROOF COMING*** This charming Craftsman-style bungalow is full of character and opportunity, making it an ideal choice for a first-time homeowner or a savvy addition to an investment portfolio. Blending traditional charm with tasteful updates, the home showcases beautiful natural wood accents, a spacious front porch, and a thoughtfully landscaped yard complete with walking paths, vibrant flowers, a peaceful back deck, and a stocked fishpond that adds a serene touch to the outdoor space. A new roof will be installed, offering added peace of mind and long-term value. One of the standout features is the detached tandem garage and workshop, thoughtfully designed for versatility with extra-tall ceilings, loft storage, and four 220-volt receptacles—perfect for woodworking, automotive projects, or an artist studio. The space includes two separate rooms with abundant natural light and enhanced electrical capacity for larger tools or equipment, making it ideal for creative work or running a small business from home. Inside, the kitchen has been updated with an industrial chef’s sink, complete with a fitted cutting board, as well as a separate prep area that works beautifully as a coffee bar. The bathrooms have also been nicely updated, offering both style and comfort. A newer furnace ensures efficiency and reliability, while the overall layout provides flexible living and workspace options to suit a variety of needs. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, and major commuter routes in Wichita, this unique and welcoming home offers not just a place to live, but room to grow and invest in your future.
