Don't miss this custom-built 5-bedroom home in Shannon Woods, perfectly positioned on a prime lot backing to the neighborhood pond. Located just off 96th and Webb, you're minutes from the best dining, shopping, and entertainment northeast Wichita has to offer. The neighborhood is quiet, tree-lined, and free of through traffic. With a west-facing front and east-facing backyard, you'll enjoy shaded evenings on the deck with views over the pond and walking trails. The community pool and playground connect directly to those trails, accessible right from your backyard. Pulling up to the home, you'll appreciate the curb appeal from the multiple gable roof peaks, manicured landscaping, brick front, and board-and-batten wood accents. A curved path leads to a large covered front porch, making a great first impression. Step inside onto real hardwood floors and you're greeted by soaring ceilings, custom woodwork throughout, and a grand entryway with a staircase up to the second-level walkway. To the left, a large front office provides a great workspace or sitting room. To the right, the formal dining room offers a dedicated space for hosting. Continue past the entry and you'll find the main living area, where exceptionally tall ceilings and a wall of windows fill the space with natural light. A double-sided fireplace serves as the focal point of the room, framed by a full mantle, hearth, and wood trim accents that climb all the way to the ceiling. A walk-up wet bar, shared with the kitchen on the other side, is a natural addition for entertaining. The kitchen features granite countertops that continue up the backsplash, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in desk. The center island includes an eating bar and additional prep space. A casual dining area sits just off the kitchen, open to both the bar and the other side of the fireplace. Just past the kitchen you'll find the main floor laundry room, complete with a wash sink, space for a second refrigerator, and an extra storage closet. A door off the kitchen leads directly to the back deck overlooking the pond. The main floor also includes a full hall bathroom, a spare bedroom, and ample storage closets throughout. Head upstairs along the walkway overlooking the living room and you'll find a full hall bathroom and three large bedrooms, including the primary suite. The primary bedroom features plenty of natural light and a walk-in closet the size of a bedroom. The private bathroom includes a dual sink vanity, walk-in shower, and a two-person soaker tub with a skylight overhead. Head downstairs to find a spacious family room with a gas fireplace and view-out windows. An adjacent flex space includes a door leading to the backyard. The basement also includes a large bedroom, a full hall bathroom, and two unfinished areas well-suited for storage. In the backyard you'll love the expansive wood deck overlooking the pond, with plenty of room for outdoor furniture, a grill, and guests. Direct access to the walking trail is right off the deck. The east-facing orientation keeps it shaded through the afternoon, making it a comfortable spot year-round. Custom homes on pond lots in Shannon Woods don't come up often.
