Description

WIll consider reasonable offers on this good older home in the small City of Gaylord, a rural  North Central KS community.  Currently this home offers three bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths with potential for more.  The home has a main floor laundry, eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, living room and a nice, full basement ready to finish or perfectly usable left un-finished. The furnace and air-conditioner were new within the last few years.  There is a detached two-car garage on the property. This home has a large yard and sits on a large corner lot that includes additional adjoining lots. Make updates to suit your lifestyle or move in "as is". All major systems of the home; heat/air, roof, electrical, etc. have been well maintained, and cosmetic repairs and/or refurbishing could easily bring this home back up to date. It is served by city water/sewer and trash pick-up.  Electric and Gas utilities are through area providers as well as up-to- date fiber optic cable TV, Internet and telephone service. There is front door school bus pick up of children for transportation to the Smith Center schools (Approx. 12 miles.) in Smith Center, the county seat.

You will find that in addition to good schools, Smith Center has a very nice grocery store, various other shops and stores, several good eating places, a wonderful City Library and public use facility as well as other services, etc.  Residents of Smith County have recently voted to build a new hospital and the current hospital and clinic are being staffed with 4 local doctors and 3 nurse practicioners. Both Smith Center and Gaylord are served by highly rated Volunteer Fire Departments. Although the small town of Gaylord has only a few businesses left and overall has come to be somewhat blighted in appearance, what it does offer is the benefit of affording the opportunity for nicer homes for less money with lower property taxes. In addition, Gaylord has a nice Community Center that is a venue used by many for social functions, community gatherings, etc., a gas station which also serves as the local coffee shop/beer hall, a nice little Library which is run by volunteers, two churches, the local grain elevator, and an interesting mix of people that, for the most part, make great friends and good neighbors.
