Property Description

Wonderfully maintained mid-century modern ranch offering the ease of one-level living on rare double lots (approximately 2/3 acre), just blocks from the University of Kansas campus. This classic home blends timeless design with thoughtful updates and has been carefully maintained for long-term peace of mind. Recent improvements include a 97% efficient furnace with humidifier (2025), new sump pump(January 2026), many newer windows, central air (~7 years), and a 3D composition roof (~3 years) with 50-year hail resistance. Inside,the home offers three comfortable bedrooms, a dedicated library or study, and light-filled living spaces that celebrate its mid-century character. The southeast bedroom includes a cedar-lined closet, while the flexible layout provides inviting spaces for every day living—whether curling up with a book, working from home, or enjoying a creative hobby. A full, unfinished basement offers excellent potential for future expansion, a workshop, or additional living space, along with exceptional storage options including a large cedar closet and a wall of enclosed cabinets designed for organized, long-term storage solutions. An oversized 24x24 garage with a newer insulated garage door adds further functionality and versatility. Large windows overlook a serene, park-like landscape dotted with mature oak, redbud, arborvitae, pawpaw, and maple trees—an uncommon setting in such a central, close-to-campus location. This peaceful backdrop attracts abundant wildlife, with butterflies, birds, foxes, and deer frequently seen throughout the property.
