Some homes simply feel different the moment you step inside. The light is softer, the rooms flow with ease, and there’s a sense that every inch has been designed for living well. All 7,600 square feet of this home make it that kind of place—grand in scale, rich in character, and surrounded by the kind of quiet that makes you breathe a little deeper. Sunlight spills through windows that seem to go on forever. Covered porches, shaded decks, and screened retreats blur the line between indoors and out, creating spaces where days stretch longer and life feels balanced. The 2023 nearly $700k remodel by Winston Brown created a home that’s both luxurious and inviting, anchored by a HIGH-END GOLF SIMULATOR (Foresight GCHawk Model) and a complete entertainment area in the basement built for leisure and connection. Elegance begins in the foyer, where an impressive staircase makes a graceful statement. The den nearby is refined and private, while the formal dining room opens naturally toward the hearth room and kitchen beyond. Here, a large breakfast bar and nook wrapped in windows make every morning feel like a fresh start. **Hardwood floors—most newly installed in 2021 and others carefully refinished—**lead you through a floor plan that’s both open and quietly sophisticated. The primary suite is extra large, offering space to unwind with thoughtful design and light that softens as the day fades. Upstairs, four separated private bedroom suites total surround a comfortable second-floor living room—a landing place between activity and rest. Each bedroom includes its own full bath and walk in closet, ensuring privacy and calm for all who live or stay here. Downstairs, the lower level extends the same sense of refinement. The 2023 remodel by Winston Brown created a space that’s both luxurious and inviting, anchored by a high-end golf simulator (Foresight GCHawk Model) and a complete entertainment area built for leisure and connection. A guest suite with full bath, coffered ceilings, wainscoting, and windows that bring in natural light make this level feel elegant rather than below-grade. A nearly full kitchen completes the space, transforming it into a true extension of the main home. The attention to detail continues outside and throughout. The entire exterior, including doors and shutters, has been freshly painted. A steel backyard fence complements the property’s strong, graceful lines. A new roof and three new HVAC systems installed by McElroy’s add confidence that this home was renovated to last. Inside, brand-new electric window treatments on the main floor and custom wood shutters on the basement windows provide both beauty and convenience. Technology and comfort go hand in hand. A full security system covers every entrance, while a steam shower adds a touch of spa-level luxury. The Sub-Zero refrigerator anchors the kitchen with timeless quality, and every finish, fixture, and upgrade feels deliberate. The home’s many outdoor living areas complete the experience: a screened porch for morning coffee, a covered deck off the dining room for evening shade, and smaller decks from the sunroom and primary bedroom that connect you to the surrounding trees. Shade settles over the stainless-steel fencing and mature landscape, making the property feel private yet welcoming. You might also enjoy the deluxe swingset! Every element of this home bears the mark of precision and purpose. Winston Brown’s craftsmanship, combined with thoughtful updates and natural beauty, has turned this residence into something greater than the sum of its parts. This home is a carefully reimagined way of living. Each day unfolds differently here—morning light in the hearth room, laughter echoing up the central staircase, a quiet round of golf downstairs, and evenings spent on the porch listening to the tress and wind!

Tucked into the tall trees of Capricorn Woods, this home lives like a quiet retreat without giving up convenience. Mornings start with light drifting through the branches as you step onto the Trex deck—coffee in hand, the woods still, the world not quite awake yet. It’s the kind of place where you feel tucked away, where privacy comes naturally, and where the extra detached two-car garage gives you the freedom to work on a project, store your equipment, or spread out in a way few homes allow. Evenings settle in just as peacefully, with the modern metal fenced yard catching the last bits of shade and the sense that you're living in a clearing carved just for you. And the best part? Lake Shawnee—one of Topeka’s gems—is only minutes away when you want a longer walk, a bike ride, or a moment by the water. Inside, the home opens up immediately into a main living space that feels airy and relaxed. 10-foot ceilings, rich oak trim, and fresh paint create an atmosphere that’s warm but never heavy. The Custom Woods cherry cabinetry anchors the kitchen with a kind of craftsmanship you don’t see often anymore. Granite counters and stainless appliances give it a modern confidence, and the openness makes cooking feel like part of the conversation—not something tucked away in a corner. Whether you’re serving dinner, catching up at the table, or just moving through the rhythm of a busy morning, the layout makes life flow effortlessly. The primary suite is a quiet getaway at the end of the day. A generous walk-in closet keeps everything organized, and the jacuzzi tub offers a moment of calm when you want it most. Main-floor laundry keeps daily routines simple, and updated fixtures throughout give the home a refreshed, cared-for feeling. Every detail reflects a home that has been lived in with pride. Downstairs, the finished basement becomes its own world—a comfortable place to unwind, create, or spread out. The large family room welcomes movie nights or game tables, and the egress bedroom offers a proper place for guests. Two additional non-conforming rooms add flexibility for office space, fitness, hobbies, or storage—whatever your life asks for. The space feels grounded and inviting, with plenty of room to grow into. Step outside again and you understand why people love living here. The stainless-steel fenced yard frames a blend of open lawn and mature trees, giving you room to relax without giving up privacy. Even the practical upgrades contribute to the everyday ease: Generac whole-home generator, leaf-filter gutter guards, sprinkler system with subsurface drains, newer HVAC, newer roof, and the reliability of Anderson windows. This is a home that handles the seasons as gracefully as it handles daily life. Close to grocery, restaurants, and the offerings of Lake Shawnee, yet surrounded by nature, this home delivers the rare kind of lifestyle where you can live quietly, live comfortably, and still be connected to everything you need.
