Welcome to this charming bungalow in the award-winning College Hill neighborhood, where timeless character meets modern efficiency. A spacious front porch invites relaxed mornings and lively evenings with friends and neighbors. Inside, the main level features a bright, open-concept living and dining area with beautifully refinished oak floors, a beamed ceiling, and a classic fireplace, creating a warm and inviting heart of the home. Four bedrooms offer flexible options, including two conforming and two non-conforming, complemented by two full baths. The home’s low-maintenance cedar siding adds lasting curb appeal, while forced-air heating and solar panels provide energy-efficient comfort—last month’s Evergy bill was just $15. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard with an above-ground pool, lush flower gardens, and a tranquil bird sanctuary feel. A large auxiliary building offers versatile space for hobbies, storage, a recreational vehicle, or a workshop, alongside an attached one-car garage. Ideally located just one block from Boswell Park and two blocks from the University, this home combines charm, sustainability, and convenience in a truly rare package. A College Hill gem ready to welcome its next owner. Some listing photos have been virtually staged to illustrate possibilities. Furnished digitally, priced in reality.
