heated pool, Hot Tub & deck, large media & game room, lots of room indoor & out
Welcome to Magnolia House. Magnolia House is named after our Cavapoo, Magnolia who is our foundation dog for our Cavapoo Puppies that we also breed. When you enter our 4200 ft.² three story house you will immediately want to relax and kick off your shoes. Immediately in front of you is a large living room with comfortable seating, a large tv, and during the summer a view outback of the 20 x 40’ swimming pool. Between the five bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, loft and multiple areas for inflatable beds. This house can easily accommodate 20 people.
This has been our family’s home for over 30 years and has recently been remodeled from top to bottom with a modern farmhouse vibe. If you enjoy cooking, you’ll be delighted with the chefs kitchen, complete with a 48 inch gas stove and all new stainless appliances. The copper farmhouse sink is just an added pleasure. There’s plenty of seating so guests can keep the cook company at the round table in the kitchen or on bar chairs at the handmade island that came from Amish country in Pennsylvania.
From the kitchen, you can head out the door to enjoy the 1000 square-foot deck that wraps around two sides of the house and during the summer, on out to the 20x40 ft swimming pool with diving board where you may just stay for the rest of the evening. Poolside you can enjoy grilling your meal, hanging out under the pergola and roasting hotdogs or making s’mores around the fire pit. The best conversations are had at night where you can see the stars and still enjoy splashing in the pool.
All those wet towels will be easy to take care of on your way back inside , when you toss them in the washer in the laundry room on the main floor. In the dining room is a large table that’s great for eating, playing games or cards or working a puzzle. You’ll find a good assortment of games and puzzles on the shelves at magnolia house. The last room on the main floor is the magnificent master bedroom complete with shiplap, a brick wall, floor to ceiling bookshelves and in the master bathroom there’s a soaker tub that’s unforgettable.
Back out into the living room and up the hickory stairway. You’ll find three more bedrooms each with its own TV, a bathroom and a loft area with a 55” television, queen sleeper sofa and comfy chairs.
We’ve saved the biggest surprise for last! When you come back downstairs to the main level and head on down the the rustic shiplap boarded stairs you will be amazed at what awaits you! There is almost another whole home down here with a full kitchen, one and a half bathrooms and the second master bedroom complete with a king size bed. Four theater chairs and 2 full leather couches accommodate a large crowd as you gather to pop some popcorn and watch your favorite movie on the 75 inch screen. The basement has a character all its own with lots of secondhand brick visible in the kitchen, bathroom, and around the windows and fireplace. Your little ones will enjoy playing in the children’s nook created for our grandchildren underneath the stairs. They might even find a play kitchen tucked away inside one of the cabinets.
If you really must work, when you’re supposed to be playing, we’ve left a computer set up at the workstation just for you.
In the evening feel free to stroll to the end of the street crossover and enjoy a walk along the commons areas in our beautiful green fairway that boasts newly refurbished children’s area and covered picnic areas. The entire neighborhood area has miles of sidewalks and you are free to enjoy them. Just around the sidewalk to the north are two small lakes, where you’ll frequently see people on the sidewalk with their poles in the water.
The great plains nature center is just across Woodlawn to the west and just north of 29th St. there you’ll find lots of paths for outdoor hiking and when it’s open, a building that houses a few small animals.
We’re just a hop, skip and a jump from Wichita State University if you enjoy a rousing game of college basketball during the winter.
During the weekends, there’s an active nightlife to be enjoyed in old town, frequent concerts at INTRUST and Hartman Arena, restaurants at The Waterfront and Cabela’s Shopping in Greenwich Plaza. And we’re close enough to hear the outdoor concerts at Yaya’s on Saturday nights. If ypu head west you’ll find the Sedgwick County Zoo and Tanganika Wildlife Park.
This amazing vrbo is pleasantly located on a cul de sac in Waterford in Northeast Wichita just a couple minutes from K 96, upscale shopping and If you forgot anything Walmart is just a half a mile away and the grocery store just another half mile. We hope ypu enjoy your stay!

Our stay was very enjoyable and we were surprised with some of the amenities of the house. However, the house was listed as a 6 bedroom (5 in the smaller print) in the search engine. I will accept responsibility for not checking this more closely but the house only has 5 bedrooms. I view this as a misclassification that needs to be corrected. We had 6 men in our group and one was not able to have a bedroom.

We were in town for our daughter’s wedding. It was meaningful to have family stay all together leading up to weekend festivities. Kitchen was well equipped to enjoy all meals. Relaxed in pool to escape heat. Parking was a challenge. We had multiple cars to transport wedding decorations. It was difficult to park 4 cars in driveway. Not many options for additional parking in cul de sac. Overall very happy with stay!

Great place!
We had a group of gym owners and coaches here for the weekend. Check-in was a breeze. The house and all of it's amenities were great for resting and recovering from our full training schedule. The house, pool, hot tub, and all outdoor areas were clean and well maintained. The upstairs kitchen was great, and we enjoyed cooking proteins on the fancy fire pit. The downstairs movie area was a great place to unwind. My single regret is that none of us had time to try out the air hockey table.

Lots of room for gathering. Nice for everyone to have their own space. Pool space is nice but foliage is weedy. Ant problem in the kitchen so we couldn’t leave food out at all. It has been everything you need for cooking inside and out. Game room down stairs is great also.

This house was wonderful, and they were super accommodating when we needed to deal with some inclement weather that came through. It comfortably slept a full house of adults with plenty of space. Everything you could need in the kitchens to cook large meals and several small kitchen appliance options.

We found the house to be in good shape, but we were not impressed with whoever does the cleaning. We found dust at the top of lampshades and the shower curtain in the upstairs Bathroom is not in good shape. The mattress in the master bedroom needs to be cleaned, it appears something has been spilled and it needs a good cleaning.

Wonderful stay!
This is a beautiful property, and just as expected from the listing. The couches and beds were comfortable and all of the spaces had sufficient amenities (pillows, blankets) to make things cozy - it really felt like home! The space was great for a family BBQ & baby shower, and the kids loved the pool and playing air hockey in the basement.
The owners are attentive, kind, and highly responsive. Highly recommend this property for a family getaway or get together!
