Property Description
Spacious living, historic charm, timeless craftsmanship, and peaceful everyday living come together in Topeka's beloved Potwin Place Historic District! Built in 1887, this beautifully preserved Victorian offers 3 spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths (upper and main level), plus a spacious bonus room for an office, studio, or additional living space. With approximately 2,863 sq. ft., this home provides an incredible amount of space, character, and functionality rarely found at this price point. From the moment you come inside, you'll appreciate the thoughtful details throughout every room. The craftsmanship is truly remarkable, featuring original narrow-plank oak floors, stunning custom woodwork, detailed trim, original hardware, decorative glass, and unique historic features that tell the story of this one-of-a-kind home. Every room offers its own charm while providing comfortable spaces to gather, relax, work, and entertain. Designed for both connection and quiet moments, this home offers multiple living spaces including front and rear parlors, giving everyone room to spread out while still enjoying time together. The beautiful upstairs sunroom is wrapped in walls of windows, filling the space with natural light and creating the perfect retreat, office, art studio, reading room, or peaceful getaway. The main-level sunroom offers another bright and inviting space—ideal for your favorite plants, morning coffee, or a cozy workspace. The updated kitchen blends modern convenience with historic character, featuring custom cherry cabinetry, premium stone countertops, and quality finishes designed to complement the original beauty of the home. Outdoor living is just as impressive! Start your mornings sipping coffee on the screened-in back porch, host summer BBQs on the spacious Trex composite deck, entertain guests on the tiered patio, or simply unwind on the gorgeous wrap-around covered front porch while enjoying the quiet, tree-lined streets of Potwin. The fenced backyard provides a private outdoor retreat. Additional features include a rare oversized detached two-car garage, paved driveway for extra parking, walkout basement, and buried utilities. Located within the National Register–listed Potwin Place Historic District, this home also qualifies for the Kansas State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit. Adding to its incredible history, the front parlor hosted the 1930 wedding of Alf and Theo Landon. This isn't just a historic house—it's a home filled with warmth, craftsmanship, space, and stories. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Topeka history while enjoying the comfort and functionality of everyday living. Sight unseen offers may be accepted by the Seller.
