LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! Here is your chance to live in the heart of Wichita, in the College Hill neighborhood! Walk to Coffee Daze, Clifton Square, The Belmont, Frost and MORE! Enjoy being blocks away from College Hill Park and Pool. This home is perfect for an active lifestyle or those who just want to be close to the action! New life has been given to this gorgeous Craftsman style home which has been completely remodeled inside and out all while maintaining and adding to the integrity of its original design. No details were forgotten in design or functionality. Windows were rebuilt to maintain their original charm, coffered ceilings were built into the dining room to create a more grandeur space, and walls were opened up to create an open-concept flow that is perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is any host's dream with ample counter space for prep and serving along with a breakfast bar where guests can chat with the chef as they whip up their recipes over the induction cooktop. In addition, you will not find a more darling eating nook complete with built-in benches and 360-degree views of the outside. This home truly brings the outside in with a front porch that is almost 400 square feet and a fully fenced backyard with 5000 square feet of new sod. It boasts 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. There are two main level bedrooms and one full bathroom with walk-in shower and 4 bedrooms upstairs including a spacious primary suite that has ample closet space and a gorgeous attached bathroom which includes a double vanity and luxurious walk-in shower. Another full bathroom with tub and shower combination serves the other three upper-level bedrooms. A lovely surprise adorns the second story; French doors lead out to a west-facing balcony, perfect for getting a bird's eye view of the neighborhood, watching Riverfest fireworks or viewing gorgeous Kansas sunsets. Not only has this home been made beautiful cosmetically, it has also undergone an almost complete transformation of its major systems as well. The HVAC system has been overhauled with four new high-efficiency units, and a large portion of the ductwork has been replaced with insulated ductwork to keep your energy bills low! The electrical knob-and-tube wiring has been gutted and replaced. A tankless hot water heater ensures that everyone has enough hot water for their bath or shower. You cannot go wrong in making this your "forever home" as it will be a wonderful investment for your future and it will stand for many years to come.
