I am pleased to offer this custom midcentury one story home in Westwood neighborhood, a few blocks NW of the University of Kansas. The home resides on a huge 1.5 acre lot surrounded by mature trees and plantings. This handsome brick home was built strong with haydite concrete blocks in 1950 by P. D. Olmstead. The architect was either Leland Johnson or Tom Geraughty. The first floor features spectacular views of nature. Oak floors create a cozy vibe on the main level in addition to a fantastic screened porch, perfect for glamping. The interior needs refreshing. This effort will be rewarded tenfold. The home has been pre-inspected. Who's next?
