Property Description

Wichita in 1900: The Coleman company, major retailer of sporting goods and camping gear, began. The Wichita Country Club was established, becoming one of the first places in the Midwest to offer golf. The Old Town district had evolved from a trading post to an entertainment district. And this house at 904 S Water was built. Step into this two-story downtown Wichita home and feel the era of the early 1900s with original wood floors and unpainted, intricate wood detailing. This unique property features a 2,000+ sq ft home, an oversized three-car garage, and two additional lots that are suitable for future development. The covered porch would have been the place to watch horses pass by on the unpaved road. Stepping inside to the grand foyer, a now-converted fireplace with an original detailed mirror greets guests and a built-in bench is where guests would wait before entering the parlor. Before ascending the beautiful wood switchback staircase, the main floor includes a previous parlor/now living room accented with entryway wood pillars. Antique pocket doors with original hardware separate the living room from the formal dining room, which is a short hallway away from the kitchen. Because this house also features modern amenities, the main-floor laundry with electric hookups was added in a separate room behind the dining room. In addition, a full bathroom with a stand-up shower with a bench was added to the main floor between the dining room and the kitchen, which was updated in recent years with cabinets, flooring, and stainless steel appliances. A cellar is accessible from inside the house by the kitchen as well as through an access in the yard. Upstairs is the location for four bedrooms, all with fresh paint and brand new carpet. There is another updated full bathroom with a tub/shower combo. And one of the bedrooms has a staircase to the attic. A feature that's definitely not from the 1900s is the oversized detached three-car garage. In addition, this listing includes two additional lots in the back of the yard, which is large enough to build another structure (PIN 00106176). This home is not part of the historic registry so the new owner is welcome to make changes. It's also close to downtown, Kellogg, and the River.
