The big-ticket updates are already done, allowing you to move in and enjoy the home from day one. Since the previous sale, the owners have invested in a new roof (March 2024), new siding, new main-floor windows, a new water heater, a fully remodeled laundry room, and beautifully renovated bathrooms, creating a home that's been thoughtfully updated inside and out. The remodeled kitchen features shaker-style cabinetry with dovetail drawers, pull-out spice racks and storage drawers, granite countertops, black stainless steel appliances, and updated gold hardware and fixtures. The vaulted living room with a fireplace opens to the dining area, creating a comfortable space for everyday living and entertaining. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private en-suite bath, while the additional remodeled bathrooms continue the home's clean, modern feel. The finished lower level offers a large second living area complete with a convenient half bath, making it an ideal space for entertaining, movie nights, watching the game, or creating a playroom, home office, or workout area. Step outside to the deck overlooking the fully fenced backyard, where you'll enjoy one of the largest lots in the cul-de-sac with plenty of room to relax, entertain, or play. Conveniently located just minutes from parks, shopping, dining, and quick access to I-35 and Shawnee Mission Parkway, this home is also located within the highly regarded Shawnee Mission School District. With extensive updates already completed, a versatile floor plan, and a location that's hard to beat, this home offers a rare combination of comfort, convenience, and long-term value.
