Some homes simply give you more room to live, and this one starts with one of the most overlooked luxuries of all—space for your vehicles, hobbies, tools, and toys. The oversized garage is exceptionally wide, complemented by an approximately 27-foot-wide driveway that makes parking, unloading, projects, and everyday life noticeably easier. Located in a peaceful neighborhood just minutes from Hwy 470, this newer construction home combines modern convenience with a quieter setting where stocked ponds, sidewalks, and open skies create a slower pace of life. Inside, the floor plan feels like it was designed around how people actually live. The main floor places the primary suite alongside two additional bedrooms, creating a layout that works beautifully for everyday routines. The great room welcomes you with soaring ceilings, a beautiful fireplace, and an open connection to the kitchen and dining spaces. Granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a large island create a natural gathering place where conversations continue while meals are prepared and guests feel connected rather than separated. Throughout the home, you'll appreciate the generous closet space and abundant storage that make staying organized surprisingly easy. The primary suite provides a comfortable retreat with a walk-in closet, double vanity, and ceramic shower. Thoughtful design and quality finishes throughout the home create a feeling that's both upscale and comfortable. Downstairs, the home truly shines for entertaining. The expansive family room and wet bar create the perfect setting for game days, movie nights, holidays, or simply having friends over. Beyond the TV room, a separate playroom or bonus space gives you flexibility for hobbies, gaming, fitness equipment, crafts, or a private retreat that can evolve as your needs change. The amount of finished living space downstairs allows everyone to spread out while still feeling connected. Outside, the covered deck becomes a natural extension of the living space. Morning coffee, shaded evening dinners, or simply enjoying the backyard all feel easy here. The fenced backyard features gates on multiple sides, providing convenient access from every direction. New landscaping in the front enhances curb appeal while the overall property remains easy to maintain. One of the biggest advantages of newer construction is peace of mind. Here, you'll enjoy modern systems, modern finishes, energy-efficient construction, and a floor plan designed for today's lifestyle without the maintenance surprises often associated with older homes. Just three minutes from Hwy 470, close to shopping, restaurants, and daily conveniences, yet tucked into a neighborhood that feels removed from the hustle of the city, this home offers the rare combination of convenience, comfort, storage, and room to truly spread out.

The best older homes don't force you to choose between character & convenience. They let you have both. It's hard to find a 1940s stone home that feels this open, but the kitchen, DR & LR flow together naturally, creating a layout that feels welcoming, connected, & designed for the way people live today. Over the years, the home has been thoughtfully updated where it matters most, including a beautifully remodeled kitchen, a reimagined primary suite & ensuite bath, a dramatically expanded composite deck, & refreshed basement living spaces. Nestled in the heart of Westwood on one of Topeka's most picturesque streets, this beautifully updated home blends timeless architecture, mature trees, & neighborhood charm w/the modern improvements buyers are searching for. The kitchen has been extensively updated w/quality cabinetry, granite countertops, an island with seating, & abundant workspace that naturally becomes the gathering place for family & friends. The adjacent dining room is large enough for holiday dinners & celebrations, while the expanded living room addition provides a spacious place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy everyday life. One of the home's most unique features is the beautiful FP built w/stone gathered from a Kansas pasture, adding warmth & authenticity that simply can't be replicated. Hardwood floors, built-ins, & thoughtful details throughout the home preserve the character that makes Westwood so beloved. Outside, the owners have transformed the backyard experience. The oversized composite deck sits on the shady side of the home, overlooking a collection of large neighboring backyards that create an unusually open feel for an in-town property. Summer evenings naturally migrate here. Whether you're grilling, hosting friends, enjoying a quiet cup of coffee, or simply watching the trees move in the breeze, this space feels like an outdoor living room. The landscaping has been thoughtfully improved, a driveway gate provides convenient backyard access, the HVAC equipment has been screened from view, & the conversion from wood siding to stucco gives the home a clean, timeless exterior appearance. Upstairs, the primary suite has been completely reimagined to function the way today's buyers expect. The bedroom feels larger & more practical, closet space has been expanded and concealed behind attractive barn doors, & the ensuite bath now feels like a true owner's retreat with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, private water closet, updated flooring, & modern finishes throughout. The secondary bedrooms are generously sized & share a large bathroom that provides comfort & convenience for everyday life. The basement has also seen significant improvements. New luxury vinyl plank flooring creates a fresh, modern feel, while newly added egress windows bring natural light into both the lower-level living room & bedroom. What was once simply bonus space now functions as true living space, including a legitimate fourth BR option. An electric fireplace adds warmth & ambiance, creating another inviting gathering area for movie nights, hobbies, guests, or everyday relaxation. The list of improvements extends well beyond cosmetics. The master suite was completely reconfigured, exterior paint & stucco were updated, new shades were installed, additional closet space was created, egress windows were added, landscaping was improved, & a Vivint security and camera system was installed & is owned. The monitoring service remains surprisingly affordable and the new owner should definitely inquire. Westwood remains one of Topeka's most cherished neighborhoods for good reason. Wide tree-lined streets, beautiful homes, & a sense of community that has endured for generations create a lifestyle that feels increasingly difficult to find. This is the rare home that successfully combines old-world charm and craftsmanship with a floor plan designed for modern living. Character without compromise. History without sacrificing convenience.

Investor special with serious upside on 4 wooded acres! If you've been looking for a large ranch-style home with privacy, acreage, hunting, and the chance to create instant equity, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for. Offering nearly 3,900 finished sq ft with 2,001 sq ft on the main level, this walkout ranch sits tucked back in the trees and features a second kitchen in the basement, a 60x40 outbuilding/shop with an oversized overhead door approximately 17' wide by 12' tall, a gravel circle drive, and a pole barn. The roof appears solid, the bones appear strong, and once cosmetically remodeled, the value potential could exceed $580,000+. For the right buyer willing to do much of the work themselves, this property offers substantial sweat equity potential. This is the kind of place where you can truly create your own vision. Pull down the circle drive and disappear into the privacy of the hardwood trees. Step out the back and hunt deer on your own 4 acres or simply enjoy the peaceful wooded setting. The ranch-style layout gives you a highly desirable footprint with large square footage on the main level, and the walkout basement with second kitchen opens up possibilities for multi-generational living, guest quarters, or expanded entertaining space. The outbuilding is a major asset on its own. Whether you’re storing equipment, working on vehicles, parking RVs or boats, or running a hobby business, the oversized overhead door and massive interior space offer flexibility that’s hard to find. The additional pole barn only adds to the utility. Inside, this home needs cosmetic updating throughout—flooring, paint, fixtures, kitchens, baths, and most interior finishes—but for someone with vision and skills, this is where the opportunity lies. Hire the work out and create a beautiful estate, or do much of it yourself and build equity fast. Properties with this much square footage, acreage, privacy, and outbuilding space rarely come available at a price point that leaves this much room for upside. Bring your tools, your vision, and your ambition. This one could be a home run.

The primary suite offers a calm retreat at the end of the day, complete with its own private bath and a beautifully tiled zero-step shower that feels both elegant and functional. Outside, the neighborhood itself encourages a slower pace. Sidewalk-lined streets, nearby trails, and the proximity to Lake Shawnee make evening walks, bike rides, and outdoor time part of everyday life. The green space behind the home adds an extra sense of openness and privacy that’s difficult to find in newer developments. And perhaps one of the biggest advantages of all: everything is new. Roof, HVAC, appliances, finishes, mechanicals—without the surprise expenses older homes often bring.

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.
