Centrally located east Wichita enclave
A big draw for folks to choose Sunnybrook in east Wichita is “its location near shopping but no crazy price tags on homes, especially compared to some neighborhoods to the north,” says Steve Myers, a real estate agent with seven years of experience, currently working at eXp Realty in Wichita. Sunnybrook includes shops along East Kellogg Drive and several blocks of homes between South Rock Road and Interstate 35. All homes are less than a mile from shopping at Eastgate Plaza. “People like it and stay,” says Myers, so this established neighborhood might not see a lot of movement on the market. “First-time home buyers and those who are downsizing come here, or people working at McConnell Air Force Base.” Locals also enjoy family-friendly restaurants and straightforward commutes from Sunnybrook into Wichita.
Sidewalks run throughout the Sunnybrook neighborhood.
Sunnybrook is a neighborhood near plenty of social hubs.
