412 Hillside St, Abilene, KS 67410

Your new home awaits in America's Best Historic Small Town! Nestled in northeast Abilene, this retro ranch-style home is the warm, bright, whimsical house card you wish you had drawn in the game of Life (better than the Split Level card at least!). It begins with charming curb appeal -you`l be welcomed by a raised native flowerbed hand built from genuine Flint Hills limestone before strolling down the limestone walkway past the Japanese maple and onto the gorgeous front porch. Enter the front door and you'll be wowed by the expansive main living room filled with light pouring in from the north and south picture windows. You'll flow from there into the formal dining room, which boasts a beautiful view of the back patio and large fully fenced backyard. A large kitchen with ample cabinet storage and newly installed track lighting will bring out your inner Next Level Chef. Cook up your winning dish using the retro range that will simply never leave you waiting on hold with Samsung over a case of planned obsolescence. After you plate your masterpiece, you can even hide your mess from your guests with the convenient pocket doors! Off the kitchen you have a large mudroom complete with washer/dryer and more pantry storage than you'll know what to hose cabinets with something). Off the mudroom you have a bathroom with stand-up shower, custom shelving, and new Kohler Cimmaron tofla (the owners plumber father would be sad if I didn't mention this). Also off the mudroom is entry to the 2-car garage and basement. In the garage you will find your very own retro refrigerator aka Midwest luxury- and in the basement you'll find an exceptionally dark non-standard bedroom (no egress) where you can definitely not put your grouchy mother-in-law, but definitely could put a movie theater or man cave....or just shelter from tornados, the world gym? A workshop? A play room? All the above?? its your oyster! The rest of the basement is untapped potential- what will you make of it? Now, Back upstairs now to the other bedrooms and bathrooms. In the northeast corner of the house you have the master bedroom with full sized closet, and its very own half bath complete with another Kohler Cimmaron toilet and custom hand-painted mural by the former homeowner! In the southeast corner of the home is a second bedroom, also with full sized closet Last, but certainly not least, is the primary bathroom with a vintage pink tub and pink wall tile, and another custom hand-painted mural! Truly, this house is one-of- a-kind. Did I mention the whole upstairs has pink carpet?? PINK! If you've gotten this far, surely you want to know more about the backyard! There are peonies a slightly unruly rose bush, large healthy ash and redbud trees, aggressively dense sunflowers in one corner, a couple raised garden beds, and a shed that definitely could be used as chicken coop. Oh, and actually the best part is the large, covered patio With gas grill that is directly hooked up to the house so you never have to grumpily go to the store to fill your propane tank you swore you just filled last time you grilled. See, you knew it was worth reading this far! All jokes aside, this lovely home sits in a nice safe neighborhood full of families and elderly folks. It is well built, charming, and immediately feels like a home. There is tons of storage throughout, lots of natural light, and a very nice layout that makes this home highly versatile for a family, couple, or an individual. All appliances are included.
