About This Home

As of August 2025

Stunning ranch-style home located just steps from Gage Park and directly across from Cedar Crest. The seller has completed numerous high-quality updates throughout, ensuring comfort and style at every turn. The beautifully maintained exterior features a stamped concrete driveway, manicured lawn, leaf filter gutter guards (2023), and a welcoming front patio. Inside, the formal living room boasts a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with a large hearth and gas insert. An adjoining flex space is perfect for a reading nook or baby grand piano. The kitchen was remodeled by Boyer Cabinetry and now includes rich cherry cabinetry, beveled-edge granite countertops, and brand-new hardwood floors installed in 2024 by Jayhawk. The adjacent dining area features cathedral ceilings and generous space for entertaining. The former deck was converted into a cozy screened-in porch in 2020—ideal for enjoying the outdoors bug-free. Three main-floor bedrooms include a spacious primary suite with dual closets. The en-suite bathroom was remodeled in 2024 to include a sleek walk-in Onyx shower surround, granite countertops, and custom tile accents. A full hall bath includes a granite vanity and tile flooring. Throughout the home, you'll find updated paint, newer light fixtures, and newer carpet, including upstairs carpet installed in 2023 and basement carpet added in 2020. The walk-out basement remodel (2020) updated the existing living space. Basement features a second fireplace in the large family room, an updated wet bar with granite countertops, an additional entertaining area, and a fourth bedroom with daylight windows. A third full bathroom has also been tastefully updated with granite and tile. Unfinished areas in the basement provide excellent storage and houses the mechanical systems. The beautifully landscaped backyard includes flower gardens, composite decking, a private patio retreat, and additional storage sheds. Additional highlights include: replaced windows, whole-house attic fan, laundry chute, newer water heater, fenced yard, biannual HVAC service by Blue Dot, and a brand-new whole-house humidifier (2025). New roof is coming soon! Whole house and sewer inspections on file. This meticulously cared-for home blends timeless style with thoughtful updates—truly a must-see!
