2842 N Wedgewood Dr, Wichita, KS 67204-5029
Back on Market! Check out this awesome estate tucked away on a .83 acre of nature and only 15 minutes from almost anywhere in Wichita. The property backs up to the river and has a tiny forest lining the riverbank. You will adore the peacefulness, privacy, canoeing, fishing, & wildlife experiences with eagles, owls, fox, deer, river otter & raccoons. You can have coffee on the deck with cardinals and other birds any time of day overlooking wonderful soft green grass, watered by sprinkler system and well. The two front flower beds have an array of perennials designed to bloom sequentially from spring to fall. The house is a masterpiece, wonderfully designed especially for that lot by both the architect Byrle E. Gross and the first owners Bill and Gaila Henry. The herringbone inlaid wood floor entry and the living room vaulted beamed ceiling with inlaid solid wood planks are amazing. The ceiling promotes a soaring feeling, and the gorgeous stone fireplace is a focal point. The ceiling is not as high as it feels, a perfect balance of energy efficiency and a grand, uplifting effect. The previous owners did a complete renovation of the upper living space. An open concept kitchen has a giant granite island with seating space, sink, and dishwasher. The gorgeous cabinetry has solid wood raised panels and the flooring is stylish luxury vinyl. The gas stove is perfect for simple or gourmet meals. A generous laundry room is adjacent across from the kitchen. The upper-level main suite has a large double sink and well-lit make-up counter. It has a fabulous heat-retaining cast-iron soaking tub with shower, and a large walk-in closet. The upstairs guest room easily accommodates a queen bed, with double closets with a bookshelf in between. A bathroom with shower is between the two bedrooms. The lower level has 2 more bedrooms, one with a desk and eyelevel view of the corner yard and pool area. There is room there for a queen pullout or queen bed opposite the desk area. The 2nd main suite easily accommodates a king bed and has two double-deep closets. The bath between the 2 bedrooms has a shower above a jetted tub! The fabulous lower family room is a large welcoming space with a 75” television set and a walk-out door. The large utility room offers great storage space and a work sink. There is a storm shelter tucked under the stairs. Adjacent to the stairs is the 4th bathroom with combined tub/shower. The three-car garage is insulated and heated. It has oversized space for each car, each with its own door and control. There are built-in work counters and cabinets allowing for a workshop or two, making the garage quite an awesome amenity! The mid-level entry is just two steps up from garage or front yard. Behind the garage there is a pet fence enclosed space easily accessible from the kitchen or mid-level.
