Welcome to 1442 N Prairie Lane, where classic Derby character meets comfortable, everyday living! This all-brick, 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers two spacious living areas, giving you room to gather, entertain or create a dedicated office or playroom. The main-floor family room is centered around a wood-burning fireplace, while the original hardwood floors have been beautifully refinished and are complemented by fresh interior paint, updated vinyl windows and solid-surface flooring throughout. The oversized kitchen provides an impressive amount of cabinet and workspace, included appliances, a dishwasher with a convenient third-tier rack and a charming bay window overlooking the front yard. The primary bedroom features double closets, and the main-floor laundry adds extra convenience. A Lennox furnace and air conditioner installed in July 2022, water softener and Ring doorbell provide additional comfort and peace of mind. Outside, the new front deck and oversized driveway create a welcoming first impression, while the attached garage offers epoxy flooring and extra storage. The fully fenced, east-facing backyard is shaded during the evenings and features mature trees, established perennial garden beds, colorful flowering vines and a solid storage shed. A clean, accessible concrete storm room is conveniently located from the backyard. One of the best features of this location is being within walking distance of Madison Avenue Central Park, a nine-acre community gathering space with an all-access playground, seasonal splash pad, half-mile hike-and-bike path, amphitheater, picnic areas, shelters and plenty of open green space. The park also hosts popular community events throughout the year, including the Kansas Grown Farmers Market, Third Thursday gatherings and holiday celebrations, placing recreation and community fun just minutes from your front door.
