809 N Parkwood Ln, Wichita, KS 67208

Being sold to liquidate estate. (NO probate court approval involved). Being sold as is, no FHA financing, Seller will not make repairs. Property has some deferred maintenance to catch up, but this once-upon-a-time Home Sweet Home can truly and easily become all that means to someone else now! There is a very large and open Family Room addition with vaulted ceiling and woodburning stove, nicely integrated with the original house. Just a few short steps across the brick patio behind it is a detached workshop with forced air gas furnace and wall unit AC, ceiling fans and fluorescent lighting, ample cabinets and countertops + a storage room with a BIG air compressor that has lines traveling under the patio to the 1 car attached garage (of the house). For the tinkerer, craftsperson, home-mechanic/woodworker, or business owner with the need for a home shop, this is a plum for the picking! The remaining back yard is a fairly compact Nature-Lover's private delight and includes a 12 x 10 wood shed as well as 3 walk-in storage closets for garden tools and supplies on the back of the shop building. Behind the shop is a neatly fenced garden area and behind the shed is a compost bin to enhance it! Back yard perimeter is privacy fenced and there is a lawn sprinkler system that worked when last used, though that's been a few years ago. (Controller is in workshop storage room.) The Kitchen was remodeled at some point and nicely opened up for integration with the generous Dining Room and to take advantage of the view to outdoors and all the natural light brought in by the two sets of French Doors from the huge Family Room to the extensive brick patio. The Family Room has its own all-in-one type HVAC system, an external unit feeding ductwork in its crawl space. The basement includes a second Family Room/Rec Room with built-in L-shaped desk spanning one corner, a classic dark room with a full array of cabinets, countertops and sink, and a large bonus room (3 no-egress windows) with double closet that was used as a non-conforming bedroom with 2nd bathroom attached to it that can also be accessed from the storage/mechanical/laundry area. (The old and deteriorated tile flooring of the bonus room has been removed.) There is extra paving to the N side of the garage for general utility purposes and the exterior siding is steel or aluminum for low maintenance. Just a little TLC can make a big impact on this home and make its new owner proud! Parkwood is just two streets W of Edgemoor and whether you're a single, a couple or a whole family, the open spaces and recreational amenities of Edgemoor Park are a short two block walk away. Surrounding the Rec Center building itself you'll find the space for soccer/football/baseball, skateboarding ramps, tennis/pickleball courts, baskeball courts, a playground for younger kids, picnic tables, plenty of room to walk/run the dog(s), and sidewalk leading all the way from Edgemoor to a footbridge across the creek at the east boundary linking you to the Rockwell Branch library, where there's even more open tree-lined space to south. This address where the home looks small, neat and tidy from the street can fool you - You'll never need to feel confined here!
