Welcome to 240 SW Fairlawn Road, the original homestead of the West Hills Subdivision. Built in 1906, it is the sole surviving structure from the area’s pre-subdivision agrarian era and is directly tied to Prospect Farm and the later Fairfield Farm dairy operation. Discover a rare piece of Topeka history with this distinctive property, sitting on the site of one of the area’s original estates. Long before the street names and strip malls, this land was home to the first settlers in the neighborhood, later thriving as a working dairy and a beloved apple orchard surrounded by rolling prairie. That rich agricultural past is still felt in the character of the beautifully shaded grounds framed by majestic oak trees and adorned with rows of perennial peonies, offering a true sense of place you simply won’t find in a new build. A Location You’ll Love! • MacLennan Park right across the street – One of Topeka’s finest outdoor gems overlooked by the Kansas Governor's Mansion. Enjoy stocked fishing ponds, miles of limestone walking paths, and a network of singletrack hiking and mountain biking trails that wind through timber and prairie overlooking the Kansas River. Trail access is practically in your front yard. The stunning Dutch Colonial style home is very rare for Topeka and commands the attention of passersby. Much of the original artisanry has been well preserved. The kitchen overlooks the park across the street and gets bathed in gorgeous sunsets. You'll appreciate the two car garage with additional room for storage, office or hobby room. There's also covered parking and a large semi-circular drive. Your spacious living room is accented by a working wood fireplace and a cozy sunroom for reading books, intimate conversations or sunrise morning coffee. Enjoy family and holidays in a formal dining room, or for convenience, use your breakfast nook for quick, private meals. Children will have ample room to play under shade trees in the back yard and side lot, or keeping occupied flying kites, fishing, biking and exploring at the park across the street. Bedrooms are spacious and beautiful with the upstairs rooms accentuated with dormer windows. As a bonus you get a full, unfinished basement for plentiful storage, shelter or whatever your imagination can dream up.

There’s something especially livable about a split-level when the spaces connect this well. This southwest Topeka home combines an open, light-filled main living area with three bedrooms together on one level, a surprisingly bright walkout lower-level family room, two full baths, a two-car attached garage, and one of its best surprises out back—a large patio surrounded by privacy fencing that feels like its own outdoor room. Add newer flooring, a 2022 furnace, 2022 kitchen appliances, and a 2025 water heater, and much of the updating you want has already been taken care of. Upstairs, large windows bring natural light into the main living space and help the open floor plan feel even larger. There’s room to relax, share a meal, or have friends over without everyone being separated into different rooms, while the kitchen remains connected to the activity around it. All three bedrooms are conveniently located together on the same level, along with one of the home's two full bathrooms. Head downstairs and this is where the split-level design really earns its keep. Instead of feeling like a typical basement, the lower-level family room is light, airy, and finished with newer flooring. It gives you an entirely separate place for movie nights, watching the game, working out, or simply spreading out, with the second full bathroom nearby. Then open the door and take the living space outside. The walkout leads directly to a large patio enclosed by privacy fencing, creating a surprisingly secluded place for morning coffee, grilling, entertaining friends, or relaxing at the end of the day. Because it connects directly to the lower-level living area, indoor and outdoor gatherings can flow naturally between the two spaces. With a two-car attached garage, important mechanical updates already completed, and a convenient southwest Topeka location with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and major routes around town, this is an easy home to settle into—and one that offers more usable living space than you might expect from the curb.
