Property Description
Looking to live in a laid-back community with small-town charm? This beautiful historic home, known as the second home ever built in Topeka, is full of character and timeless appeal. Situated on a large corner lot with a fenced private backyard, you can spend your summer days relaxing in the 12x26 above-ground pool or enjoying peaceful evenings outdoors. Step back in time as you enter this turn-of-the-century gem featuring original wood pocket doors, a stunning staircase in the foyer, and all the charm of the early 1900s. Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on the wraparound front porch while watching the horses and buggies wander by, giving you that true small-town feeling. If you’ve been dreaming of charm, history, and a slower pace of life, this home may be exactly what you’ve been searching for.
