Property Description
Step back in time and embrace the charm of mid-century modern living with this perfectly preserved gem located in southeast Wichita. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood yet conveniently close to highway access, this one-owner home was designed and built in the 1950s by renowned Wichita native architect and artist, Doran Barham. His artistic vision shines through in every aspect of the home's design, from its carefully placed windows that flood the interiors with natural light, to the vaulted ceilings that create a sense of openness and tranquility. This home is a true testament to mid-century modern architecture, offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of Wichita's rich history. The layout, indicative of its era, includes a single bathroom, ingeniously designed to optimize space and functionality. The traditional basement is anything but ordinary, featuring unique windows and a walkout that leads to a fenced backyard—a perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living. The carport is not just a shelter for your vehicle, but also a practical storage solution, with built-in storage on both sides to accommodate your gardening tools and more. The street ends just past this home at a peaceful creek, providing an added sense of privacy and serenity. While the home retains its vintage charm, it has been meticulously maintained over the years. A new HVAC system was installed in 2019, ensuring modern comfort within this classic setting. Every update and home improvement made by the original owner comes with detailed documentation, including the original blueprints, which will be passed on to the new buyer. This home is more than just a place to live—it's a piece of Wichita's history. The future owner will not only appreciate its timeless design but will also take pride in preserving and cherishing a unique part of the city's architectural legacy. This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved mid-century modern home at an exceptional price. Don't miss your chance to step into a home that perfectly marries history, design, and comfort.
