1517 N Park Pl, Wichita, KS 67203

Welcome to this stunning Queen Anne home in Historic Midtown Wichita! With fresh exterior and interior paint throughout and a newly installed second central HVAC system, this home is move-in ready while still preserving all the historic character that makes it special. Located just north of downtown, the home puts you minutes from Wichita's best dining, shopping, and entertainment, as well as nearby parks, Botanica, and Exploration Place. The neighborhood is lined with mature trees and character-rich homes, and this one stands out from the moment you pull up. Pulling up to the home, you'll appreciate the freshly painted blue-gray exterior with original fishscale shingle siding, a multi-gable roofline, and original-paned windows that have been part of this home for over a century. The wraparound turret porch with white columns and a hanging porch swing invites you to slow down before you even step inside, and the original oak front door is a beautiful preview of the craftsmanship throughout. Step inside to find original hardwood floors and soaring 10-foot ceilings that immediately set this home apart. The entry room anchors the main floor with an original oak fireplace surround featuring hand-carved detail and a beveled mirror above. Just through the large wood-framed French swing doors, the living room opens up with abundant natural light, a built-in window seat, and bay windows on two sides that make the space feel bright and welcoming year-round. The formal dining room sits between the entry and the kitchen, flowing naturally from one space to the next. Original woodwork and trim carry through here, along with a built-in china cabinet and pocket doors that let you open the room up or close it off depending on the occasion. The kitchen is large and well laid out, with painted custom cabinetry, a tile backsplash, and a center island with a cooktop and bar seating. Double wall ovens and a stainless steel dishwasher round out the appliances, and a sliding glass door at the back of the kitchen leads directly out to the deck and yard. Also on the main floor you'll find a bedroom and a full bathroom with beadboard walling, a pedestal sink, a separate makeup station, tile floors, and a tile walk-in shower. Head upstairs to find four additional bedrooms, including the original sleeping porch rooms that are full of natural light and original beadboard character. The full upstairs bathroom features a pedestal sink, built-in shelving, and a deep clawfoot tub. With the second central HVAC system now serving the upper level, the whole home stays comfortable no matter the season. In the backyard you'll love the large wood deck and spacious fenced yard shaded by mature trees. A concrete pad with a basketball hoop and a gravel fire pit area give you plenty of options for outdoor entertaining, and the long gated driveway provides additional off-street parking with direct access into the backyard. Homes with this much character, this much space, and this level of historic detail don't come up often in Midtown. Schedule your private tour today!
