***OPEN HOUSE Saturday, May 9 from 11:00 to 12:30*** Tucked onto a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after Shawnee Heights School District, this updated ranch offers the kind of easy, social layout that simply works for everyday life. With three separate living areas, an open flow between the kitchen, dining, and main living spaces, and a large sunroom connected right off the heart of the home, this house was made for gathering, relaxing, and spreading out without ever feeling disconnected. Fresh paint, updated flooring, and thoughtful improvements throughout make it feel welcoming the moment you step inside. The main living room opens naturally into the dining area and kitchen, creating the kind of floor plan where conversations carry easily from room to room. Morning coffee in the sunroom, game nights in the basement, or evenings around the fireplace all feel equally at home here. The layout has an unusually social feel, giving everyone room to be together while still offering separate spaces to unwind. Downstairs, the basement expands the home dramatically with a huge additional living room, bonus spaces, and flexibility for hobbies, work-from-home setups, guests, or recreation. The basement bar area adds personality and creates a natural gathering place for watching games, hosting friends, or simply relaxing at the end of the day. Outside, the extra-wide driveway and additional parking make everyday convenience easy, while the fenced backyard offers privacy and usable outdoor space. The oversized tall shed with concrete floor provides excellent room for storage, projects, tools, or hobbies in addition to the attached garage. Major updates already completed include a newer sewer line and professional foundation work completed by Schreiner Construction, giving added confidence in the home’s long-term stability. Located just minutes from Lake Shawnee, shopping, restaurants, and highway access, this home combines peaceful neighborhood living with quick convenience to everything southeast Topeka has to offer. This is the kind of home that feels comfortable immediately—solid, spacious, social, and ready for its next chapter. --
