Community pools, scenic sidewalks and big-box convenience
With community hubs and big-box convenience, Bradford-Sterling Farms exudes the suburban character that northwest Wichita is known for. Residents can bike to community pools and playgrounds in the neighborhood’s northern and southern regions. Sidewalks surround the area’s numerous ponds, making early morning jogs and afternoon walks daily activities. Located less than 2 miles east of NewMarket Square, the neighborhood is just a quick drive away from over 80 restaurants and retailers. “This is an inexpensive neighborhood for northwest Wichita because the houses are a bit older compared to places like Fox Ridge or Reflection Ridge,” says Heather Golden, an associate broker and Realtor with J.P. Weigand & Sons, who has sold several homes in the area. “But you’re still near tons of shopping and great parks, and it’s Maize Unified School District, which is always a huge plus.”
Cool off during the hot summer days at Bradford-Sterling Farms's neighborhood pool.
