About This Home
As of August 2025Step into a treasure chest of Victorian grandeur at 411 SW Woodlawn Ave—3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, double garage—this is a rare opportunity to own a richly detailed, architecturally significant home in one of Topeka’s most well-preserved historic districts. From the moment you arrive, the stunning curb appeal draws you in: a massive wrap-around concrete porch sets the stage with timeless grace. Inside, every detail tells a story—soaring ceilings, narrow plank oak floors, and intricate milled woodwork in distinctive patterns evoke the artistry of a bygone era. Discover Lincrusta wainscoting, original hardware, exquisite glasswork, period lighting, and rare elements like functional speaking tubes—each contributing to the home’s remarkable character. The layout offers both charm and flexibility, with front and back parlors, dual staircases (formal and rear), and natural light-filled studio or study spaces on both levels. The cherry wood kitchen has been tastefully updated to combine modern convenience with the home's historic appeal. Outdoors, enjoy a private retreat—tiered decking and a sectioned patio overlook a beautifully landscaped, fenced backyard. Buried utilities ensure an uninterrupted view, enhancing the serene atmosphere. Adding to its historical value, this home was the site of the January 15, 1930, wedding of Alf and Theo Landon—held in the front parlor when it was the residence of Theo’s family. The property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and qualifies for the Kansas State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit. Some listing photos have been virtually staged to illustrate possibilities. Furnished digitally, priced in reality! Don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of Topeka’s architectural heritage—schedule your private showing today.
