Thoughtfully rehabbed and move-in ready, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home blends original character with valuable modern improvements. Original hardwood flooring brings warmth to the interior, while fresh paint throughout, sliding closet doors, new window hardware and curtains create a clean, finished feel. Major improvements include updated plumbing and electrical systems, providing peace of mind beyond the home’s attractive finishes. The gas stove, microwave, refrigerator, washer and dryer are all included, making the transition into your new home even easier. The approximately 968-square-foot main level offers a comfortable, functional layout, while the nearly full-footprint basement provides substantial storage and flexible bonus space. Outside, fresh landscaping complements the spacious 0.69-acre lot, offering plenty of room to relax, garden or entertain. Currently furnished and beautifully presented. Furniture availability may be negotiated separately. Conveniently located near shopping, dining and major routes.
Mill Creek, located between Noland Road and Little Blue River, is a residential and park-adjacent Independence neighborhood with winding creek corridors and mid-century ranch streetscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Noland Road and E 23rd Street corridor, where small storefronts, service counters, and everyday errands set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Housing trends toward brick ranches, split-levels, and tidy postwar infill on generous lots with mature trees. Mill Creek Trail and nearby greenways shape a walk-and-roll routine along water and woods. The Truman Library & Museum and the National Frontier Trails Museum add a civic, history-forward backdrop. The Independence Square frames weekend browsing with local institutions like the Englewood Arts Center and Ophelia’s Restaurant & Inn.
