1417 SW College Ave Topeka, KS 66604

Once in a blue moon, one of the fabulous early 20th century homes in the College Hill neighborhood near Washburn University comes on the market. This is one of those fabulous homes. Built in 1910 on a wide, tree-lined street just blocks from what was then Washburn College, this home is a picture-perfect example of a two-story brick Colonial. Center hall with a switchback staircase to the second floor, perfect window symmetry as viewed from the exterior, high roof, dormers, back stairway from the kitchen area to the second floor, butler's pantry and so much more. The main floor has living and dining rooms, the updated kitchen with laundry in a closet, a sun room and what was the side screened porch now finished as interior space. All four bedrooms, one of which is a sleeping porch, are located on the second floor. The primary bedroom has an en suite bath with a jet tub as well as a low threshold shower. The backyard wood deck and mature, low maintenance landscaping complete the exterior appeal. The home is located just a few blocks from Washburn University which offers more than university level classes--the Sunflower Music Festival, art and music summer camps, libraries, sports games, concerts, plays, art exhibits, lectures and walking paths just to name a few of the many opportunities. Don't hesitate to become the next chapter in this exceptional home's story.
