About This Home
Tucked away on nearly 14 acres in the desirable Washburn Rural School District, this 4,540 sq. ft. estate offers the perfect blend of seclusion, comfort, and country living. Set well back from the blacktop road, it feels like a private retreat while still being conveniently located. Inside, there’s room for everyone and everything you love. With 5 conforming bedrooms plus 2 non-conforming, 4 full baths, and 1 half bath, the layout is designed for flexibility—whether you need multiple home offices, playrooms, or quiet corners to unwind. Multiple living areas provide plenty of space to spread out, from the welcoming main-floor living room with its gas fireplace to the walk-out basement with a wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cozy Kansas evenings. This home was built for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen and dining areas flow easily outdoors to an expansive deck, where grilling turns into gathering, and summer afternoons are best spent in the pool and hot tub, overlooking the wide, fenced backyard. Two charming sunporches make ideal spots for morning coffee or evening relaxation, while the separate laundry and storage spaces keep life running smoothly. Practical touches abound: a spacious 3-car garage, a 60x40 outbuilding for hobbies or equipment, and two custom chicken coops for anyone dreaming of a little hobby farm. The mother-in-law suite above the garage is a true home within a home. With its own living room, kitchenette, dining area, full bath, and two bedrooms (one non-conforming), it’s perfect for extended family, long-term guests, or even independent living with privacy and comfort. From its peaceful, set-back location to its inviting indoor and outdoor spaces, this property offers a rare chance to enjoy both seclusion and convenience. Whether you picture summer afternoons by the pool, evenings by the fire, or quiet mornings on the porch, this home is more than a place to live—it’s a lifestyle. Sight unseen offers may be accepted by the Seller. The Showing Begin Date is subject to change.
