21 N Beech Rd Wichita, KS 67206

This gem of a home in east Wichita will have you swooning! From beautiful cosmetic touches to updated mechanicals, you get the best of both worlds in this 1940 home. With storybook curb appeal, this home's inviting circle drive and large trees are accented with original touches like the wall-mounted mailbox and amber glass porch light. Tucked away in the Forest Hills neighborhood near Douglas and Webb, this home showcases an open floor plan living/dining/kitchen area. Featuring a large quartz top island, this kitchen is as functional as it is pretty with hidden storage under the bar top, ample prep space on the granite counters lining the perimeter of the kitchen, and the pot filler over the gas range. Stylish white cabinets with contrasting black pulls are illuminated with new light fixtures to keep the space bright. The main living space features a dining area (in addition to bar top seating) as well as the living room with bay windows overlooking the gazebo. Down the hall from the dining space is an updated full bathroom with a tiled shower and single vanity. The hallway also leads to two bedrooms - both with new vinyl windows installed in 2022 - and the laundry closet. Back in the main room, take a step down into the perfect study with built-in bookshelves, stone wall, decorative fireplace, and new windows. But wait, this primary suite is what you've been waiting for! This room is massive, easily fitting a king-size bed, nightstands on both sides, and an armoire. Although you might not need extra storage once you see the walk-in closet! In addition, there is space to get cozy for an in-room reading nook or sitting area. The on-suite tile bathroom is just as spacious! Complete with a bathtub for relaxing soaks and a stand-up shower, there's also a double-sink vanity so no fighting for sink space. Two upper windows provide light and fresh air while maintaining privacy. And if you like your morning coffee or an evening cocktail outside, the new sliding glass door leads you to the gazebo adorning the front of the home. The fully fenced backyard with a shed and greenhouse provides tranquility and leads to the detached 2-car garage with electricity. Nearly every detail of this home has been redone in recent years, and this owner has spent more than $60,000 in additional mechanical and cosmetic updates. Beyond what your eyes can see, this home has a newer roof (2022), newer furnace and air conditioner (2022) newer exterior paint (2022) and interior paint (2021), French drains (2022), new ductwork in the crawlspace (2021), additional blown-in attic insulation (2021), and more. Close to Beechcraft, Wichita Collegiate, and the Waterfront, this is a prime location with shopping and dining to the north and an easy Kellogg commute to the south.
