1932 SW Westwood DR, Topeka, KS 66604

The best older homes don't force you to choose between character & convenience. They let you have both. It's hard to find a 1940s stone home that feels this open, but the kitchen, DR & LR flow together naturally, creating a layout that feels welcoming, connected, & designed for the way people live today.

Over the years, the home has been thoughtfully updated where it matters most, including a beautifully remodeled kitchen, a reimagined primary suite & ensuite bath, a dramatically expanded composite deck, & refreshed basement living spaces. Nestled in the heart of Westwood on one of Topeka's most picturesque streets, this beautifully updated home bl

ends timeless architecture, mature trees, & neighborhood charm w/the modern improvements buyers are searching for. The kitchen has been extensively updated w/quality cabinetry, granite countertops, an island with seating, & abundant workspace that naturally becomes the gathering place for family & friends.

The adjacent dining room is large enough for holiday dinners & celebrations, while the expanded living room addition provides a spacious place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy everyday life. One of the home's most unique features is the beautiful FP built w/stone gathered from a Kansas pasture, adding warmth & authenticity that simply can't be replicated.

Hardwood floors, built-ins, & thoughtful details throughout the home preserve the character that makes Westwood so beloved. Outside, the owners have transformed the backyard experience. The oversized composite deck sits on the shady side of the home, overlooking a collection of large neighboring backyards that create an unusually open feel for an in-town property.

Summer evenings naturally migrate here. Whether you're grilling, hosting friends, enjoying a quiet cup of coffee, or simply watching the trees move in the breeze, this space feels like an outdoor living room. The landscaping has been thoughtfully improved, a driveway gate provides convenient backyard access, the HVAC equipment has been screened fro

m view, & the conversion from wood siding to stucco gives the home a clean, timeless exterior appearance. Upstairs, the primary suite has been completely reimagined to function the way today's buyers expect. The bedroom feels larger & more practical, closet space has been expanded and concealed behind attractive barn doors, & the ensuite bath now f

eels like a true owner's retreat with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, private water closet, updated flooring, & modern finishes throughout. The secondary bedrooms are generously sized & share a large bathroom that provides comfort & convenience for everyday life.

The basement has also seen significant improvements. New luxury vinyl plank flooring creates a fresh, modern feel, while newly added egress windows bring natural light into both the lower-level living room & bedroom. What was once simply bonus space now functions as true living space, including a legitimate fourth BR option.

An electric fireplace adds warmth & ambiance, creating another inviting gathering area for movie nights, hobbies, guests, or everyday relaxation. The list of improvements extends well beyond cosmetics. The master suite was completely reconfigured, exterior paint & stucco were updated, new shades were installed, additional closet space was created,

egress windows were added, landscaping was improved, & a Vivint security and camera system was installed & is owned. The monitoring service remains surprisingly affordable at approximately $10 per month. Westwood remains one of Topeka's most cherished neighborhoods for good reason.

Wide tree-lined streets, beautiful homes, & a sense of community that has endured for generations create a lifestyle that feels increasingly difficult to find. This is the rare home that successfully combines old-world charm and craftsmanship with a floor plan designed for modern living. Character without compromise. History without sacrificing convenience.
