Welcome to this charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom home set on a corner lot just a few blocks from Ottawa University. The tree-lined neighborhood offers a picturesque setting where you can start each day with coffee on the generously sized front porch. Inside, the spacious living room provides comfortable room to relax or gather, while the kitchen features plenty of cabinet space and includes all appliances—ready for everyday living or weekend cooking.
A standout feature is the convenient two-car garage, offering secure parking and valuable extra storage for tools, seasonal items, or outdoor gear. Recent improvements include a new AC unit installed in February 2024 and a new sewer line completed in January 2023, giving the home solid, updated infrastructure.
This location places you in the heart of Ottawa’s rich history and vibrant community. Boasts the striking Franklin County Courthouse designed by noted local architect George P. Washburn. Downtown’s historic Main Street features Plaza 1907, recognized as the oldest continuously operating movie theater in the world, along with the Old Depot Museum. Ottawa is also the only Kansas community where the Prairie Spirit Trail and the long Flint Hills Trail State Park meet, unlocking more than 170 miles of scenic paths for walking, biking, and outdoor adventure.
Life here is filled with community events and local traditions: the long-running Franklin County Fair & Rodeo, the popular Ol’ Marais River Run Car Show, weekly farmers markets, Third Thursday downtown gatherings, July 4th fireworks and City Band concerts at Forest Park, Ladies Night Out, the Airport Fun-Day Fly-In, Chautauqua celebrations, holiday parades, and the mayor’s tree lighting. Whether you’re catching a film at Plaza 1907, exploring the trails, or enjoying a university game, this home offers an easy, connected lifestyle in a welcoming Kansas town. Schedule your showing and experience the charm for yourself.
