Willowbend
Suburban Neighborhood in Wichita, Kansas
Sedgwick County 67226

A golf course view from every home
Residential streets wind around the golf course, often with cart paths crossing the residential streets and with backyards facing the links. “It has a really traditional and quiet suburb-like feel, but the golf course gives it a unique level of beauty and community,” says Heather Golden, associate broker and Realtor with J.P. Weigand & Sons. Each house has similar neo-eclectic architecture, but with its own unique style, so no two houses are exactly alike. Fixed on quarter-acre lots, these homes typically offer 2,000 to 4,000 square feet of living space with three to five bedrooms, selling anywhere between $300,000 and $500,000.Golfing and hanging out at the clubhouse
In addition to public and members-only tee times, Willowbend has a driving range and a clubhouse with a pro shop, restaurant and an outdoor lounge area. “There’s a group of women that will go to the clubhouse to play cards, bingo and Dominos,” says Bruch-Miller. “The patio is covered and has TVs, so guys will go there to hang out and watch golf.” While there’s no fishing in the lakes on the golf course, residents can cast a line in the stocked pond by the clubhouse. Kids can also have fun on the fenced-in playground on Ironwood Street.Award-winning music education
Students attend Gammon Elementary and Stucky Middle, each graded a C from Niche. They’ll go on to C-plus-graded Wichita Heights High, ranked the 6th-most diverse high school in the state. Middle and high school students can participate in award-winning orchestra, band and choir programs as Wichita Public Schools was consecutively named one of the Best Communities for Music Education by the National Association of Music Merchants from 2020 to 2024.A 10-mile drive to Downtown Wichita
Kansas Highway 96 is about 1 mile south of Willowbend, which begins the 10-mile drive to Downtown Wichita.Shopping and dining on North Rock Road
North Rock Road splits the golf course community in half, leading 1 mile south to retailers and restaurants and even more down the road. The closest shopping center features a Kohl’s and Sam’s Club, along with several other national retailers. Locals can grab a bite to eat from one of the many fast-food restaurants or one of the few local establishments. Spangles, a Wichita chain, is a popular spot for its 50s diner vibe. There’s also Tacos TJ 664 for Mexican food and Fizz, known for its burgers, homemade pickles and craft soda. Another two miles down the road is a Sam’s Club, Walmart and even more restaurants to choose from.
