This 5 bedroom, 3 bath home is located in The Whispering Lakes Estates addition. Whispering Lakes is located just a few minutes from East Wichita, Rose Hill and Andover. The neighborhood is located in Sedgwick County, just 1 block west of Butler County. This provides you with the benefit of lower Sedgwick County property taxes while still being outside of the Wichita city limits. Whispering Lakes Estates is an HOA community. The neighborhood includes a large pond with a sidewalk, as well as a smaller pond. Catch and release fishing is one of the benefits of the neighborhood pond. The community also has a private pool for homeowners. Weekly trash service is included as part of the HOA. While the school district is Wichita public schools, there are also kids in the neighborhood who attend school in Andover and Rose Hill. Upstairs, the house features a living room, kitchen with an adjacent dining area, three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The master bedroom has an adjoining master bath that features a sunken tub and shower. The master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and a large window which faces the community pond. The downstairs features a spacious family room, a laundry/utility room, two bedrooms, and another full bathroom. Besides the laundry area downstairs, there is also the ability to have a washer and dryer hook up in one of the upstairs bedrooms. Perhaps the best part of this home is not even in the house- because the outdoor area has so much to offer. The property backs up to a creek, which typically has water year-round. With the benefit of having a creek, the property is often visited by deer, turkey, squirrels, and ducks. It is the perfect back yard for anyone who loves to watch birds and wildlife, which has been a favorite past-time of the current owners for the past eight years. Hummingbirds, cardinals, bluejays, barn swallows, purple martins, flycatchers, and woodpeckers are some of the highlights of the birds in the yard. In 2024, the home was lucky enough to have a pair of red-bellied woodpeckers' nest in the hedge row- it was a fun experience watching them fly in and out of the tree feeding their young. At the back end of the property, there is a shed for keeping your lawn and garden supplies. There is also a deck attached to the shed that overlooks the creek area. This is a nice place to sit and listen to the birds and read a book. The main level was recently painted as well as new carpet installed upstairs. A new roof is also going to be installed. A home inspection has been completed and can be provided to an interested buyer. Another unique feature of this home is that the neighbor's houses are not "right on top of you" as is often the case in many residential areas. If any of this has raised your curiosity, you should drive by and see everything this home and neighborhood has to offer. This might just be the home you have been searching for!
