You can move right in and start enjoying this one. This recently remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in the Shawnee Heights School District gives you the fresh, updated feeling buyers want, along with a full finished basement, a private backyard, and a location approximately a mile from the recreation surrounding Lake Shawnee—the Gem of Topeka. Upstairs, the living room, dining area, and kitchen flow together naturally, making it easy to spend time or visit with friends while meals are being prepared. Large windows and the sliding glass door bring in plenty of natural light, while the new flooring throughout, fresh interior paint, updated lighting, new interior doors, and remodeled finishes create a clean and comfortable place to settle in. The kitchen’s newer black stainless steel appliances add a polished finishing touch. The sliding glass door also makes the backyard feel like an extension of the living space. Step outside for a quiet morning, let everyone enjoy the yard, or invite friends over without feeling exposed to the surrounding neighborhood. The backyard feels surprisingly private, giving you a comfortable place to unwind at the end of the day. Downstairs, the full finished basement gives everyone room to spread out. Its large L-shaped living and recreation area can easily accommodate more than one activity at a time—set up a television area for movie nights, create a game or exercise space, or reserve part of it for hobbies or a home office. There is also a good-sized non-conforming fourth bedroom that could serve as a guest room, office, or private retreat, along with a second bathroom and a dedicated laundry room that keeps household chores tucked away from the main living areas. Much of the work has already been completed, including newer furnace and A/C systems, new vanities, updated light fixtures, new flooring upstairs and downstairs, fresh interior paint, new interior doors, and a sump pump with battery backup. Even the attached garage provides some extra room beyond simply parking a vehicle. Living here also puts you close to one of Topeka’s favorite places to get outside. Lake Shawnee is approximately a mile away, making it easy to enjoy the walking and biking path around the lake, Ted Ensley Gardens, the arboretum, children’s fishing pond, dog park, volleyball and tennis courts, and other nearby recreation. Whether you are relaxing at home, spreading out in the finished basement, enjoying the privacy of the backyard, or heading to the lake, this is a home where you can begin enjoying both the house and the location from the day you move in.

$40,000 UNDER COUNTY VALUE! That’s an amazing value on a home that’s currently livable and that’s been in the same family for almost 20 years. The location of this home is so tucked away that I’d bet all the money in my wallet that you’ve never driven by it in your life. There’s something special about living on a dead end road. The home itself has a layout that needs no changing! Built in 1985, the kitchen, dining room, and living room are all spacious. We have a primary bathroom on the main floor with en suite bathroom, a main floor laundry room by the attached garage, all on top of a walkout, finished basement, complete with a bar area for entertainment, a couple of bedrooms, and a third full bathroom! Here are a few things that will need to be dealt with by the new owners: rear deck needs rebuilt, roof is aging but functional, HVAC is aging but functional, bathrooms could use a refresh. Outside of that, the rest appears to be fully cosmetic: flooring, paint, etc. Sellers welcome any inspections and believe this house would be PERFECT for someone who could qualify for a 203K FHA loan! With this, a buyer could finance the renovations as part of their mortgage! This home, modernized could easily be worth $300,000. Why buy someone else’s dream when you could CREATE YOUR OWN?? DEFINITELY worth a look! Thank you.

Nearly everything has already been done for you: new furnace, new central air, updated electrical, updated plumbing, brand-new kitchen, completely remodeled bathroom, new paint, and new flooring throughout. Wilson offers the rare combination of extensive remodeling, walkable neighborhood charm, and a brand-new oversized 22x25 two-car garage in one of Topeka’s most interesting up-and-coming areas. ***Stainless steel kitchen appliances to be provided with full price offer.*** This is the kind of older home buyers hope to find—full of original character, but without the overwhelming deferred maintenance that usually comes with it. Set in a neighborhood where homes are actively being restored and improved, this property offers a lifestyle that feels different from newer subdivisions. Walk to local favorites like the Brass Rail, Pizza Parlor, Abigail’s, or nearby Santa Fe Park and enjoy the kind of neighborhood atmosphere where front porches still matter and people actually know the local businesses around them. The area has an old-soul charm mixed with growing momentum that continues attracting buyers looking for something more unique and connected. Inside, the home feels surprisingly spacious thanks to large rooms, tall ceilings, oversized openings, and beautiful pocket doors between the living and dining rooms. Natural light pours through the east-facing sun porch, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee, plants, reading, or simply slowing down before the day begins. The covered front porch offers another comfortable place to unwind and enjoy the neighborhood in the evenings. One of the hidden opportunities here is upstairs. The attic space offers surprisingly tall ceilings and a tremendous amount of usable area. The current owners had considered finishing the space themselves, and there appears to be potential for roughly 500 additional finished square feet—or possibly much more depending on your vision. Beyond the cosmetic remodel, the practical improvements are just as impressive. The newly built oversized garage with alley access provides excellent parking, storage, workshop, or hobby space, plus there is additional rear parking as well. Basement storage, an American Home Shield warranty through November 2026, and a transferable 5-year Roof Maxx warranty provide additional peace of mind. And unlike many older homes, the yard is intentionally manageable—you can realistically mow it in about 15 minutes and spend the rest of your evening actually enjoying the neighborhood instead of maintaining it. The location remains incredibly convenient too. Stormont Vail and KU St. Francis hospitals are both just minutes away, along with downtown Topeka, NOTO, Highway 24, and I-70 access. This home blends old-neighborhood charm with modern reliability in a way that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find. Listing Agent is related to Seller.
