Improvements

The HomeThis 5-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home has evolved over time through thoughtful additions and renovations. Built in 1964 and purchased by the current owners in 1985, the home has been carefully maintained and updated to meet the needs of a growing farm family.
The main level features an open living room, sitting room, kitchen, and dining area—all filled with natural light that enhances the spacious layout. The kitchen is a true highlight, with a large island offering ample counter space and room for gathering. Both bathrooms showcase quality finishes, with the primary bath featuring dual vanities and a walk-in tiled shower. The primary bedroom also includes a generous walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms complete the main level.
A newly remodeled second bathroom—also with dual sinks and a fully tiled shower/tub—is located just off the main living space. Downstairs, you’ll find a large rec room with an egress window and two additional bedrooms.
The home also includes a functional mud/laundry room off the attached two-car garage. This space features a scrub sink, folding area, and has served as a sewing room as well. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a spacious screened-in porch featuring lighting and a ceiling fan. It connects seamlessly to an outdoor cooking area and garden deck—perfect for enjoying Kansas sunsets and fresh air.
