I am pleased to share a rare opportunity: Up for grabs is renovated super-sized 1927 Bungalow in Barker Neighborhood. There have only been 3 owners over the past 99 years. The original owner was Waldemar Geltch, a world renown violinist and former Director of the Violin Department at KU. In recent years the home has been expanded and updated to blend the charm of yesteryear with the conveniences of today. The chef’s kitchen is tucked away in the rear, integrated with a cozy family room. The deck is nearby that connects you with a huge, fenced yard surrounded by mature trees. The shed in back has been transformed into a fabulous, finished gym with a mini-split and television. The primary bedroom is located on the second floor overlooking the gorgeous lot. The morning sun greets you each day. There are two HVAC systems to keep you feeling just right. Located on a roadless traveled, Forrest Avenue. Who’s next?
