About This Home
As of April 2025OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY March 9 from 1:00 - 2:30. The curb appeal of this home is attractive, but when you enter through the front door into the living/dining room with original hardwood floors, you catch a glimpse of the lovely, updated kitchen which leads into the family room. This family room is definitely where you will want to spend your time relaxing, watching tv or just hanging out. (The gas fireplace with remote starter has never been used by the current owners and is not warrantied.) For home buyers seeking to downsize or right size, this well-maintained home is the right choice. The primary bedroom has an en-suite, and the second bedroom has its own bath with low threshold shower. The basement houses the laundry and a minimally finished area, offering additional living space. The covered deck overlooks the privacy fenced backyard. Ever popular Collins Park is two blocks away and welcomes neighbors to participate in Easter egg hunts, the famous 4th of July parade, Trick or Treating, holiday light displays and more. Washburn University, restaurants, Circle Coffee and the Dairy Queen are just a short drive away.
