Property Description

Some homes simply feel cheerful the moment you walk through the door, and this bungalow has that feeling from the very beginning. Sunlight pours through the many windows, especially in the bright front sunroom where mornings begin slowly and evenings settle in peacefully behind the French doors. The layout avoids the dark, boxy feeling many older homes have—instead, the living and dining rooms feel open, welcoming, and full of life. Between the charming front porch, shaded evening deck, and warm interior character, this is the kind of house that feels comfortable immediately. Located in a highly convenient central Topeka location near Washburn University and within walking distance to Randolph Elementary, the home blends classic charm with thoughtful updates. Hardwood floors and rich woodwork give the spaces warmth and personality, while lots of fresh paint and updated décor keep things feeling refreshed and move-in ready. The Custom Woods kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and pantry space, creating a kitchen that's both attractive and practical for everyday life. The front sitting room or sunroom quickly becomes a favorite place in the house. Wrapped in windows and connected by French doors, it's ideal for morning coffee, reading, plants, or simply enjoying the changing light throughout the day. Out back, the deck sits on the shady side of the house in the evenings, making it a comfortable place to grill, unwind, or gather with friends after work. Upstairs, the third bedroom offers a surprisingly large and private retreat that works beautifully as a bedroom, guest space, office, craft room, or second living area. The flexibility gives the home a larger feel than you might expect at first glance. Practical updates add confidence too, including a furnace and air conditioner that are only about three years old, updated windows in the front room, and excellent off-street parking. The overall feeling here is one of comfort, light, and livability—a charming home with character that still functions beautifully for modern life. This is not just another bungalow. It's a home with personality, warmth, and spaces people naturally want to spend time in.
