8740 Ensley Lane

Nestled beneath a canopy of mature trees on one of Old Leawood's most sought-after streets, this timeless Colonial offers the space, warmth, and versatility today's buyers rarely find. Situated on a park-like lot with an oversized backyard, this is the kind of home where weekends are spent grilling on the patio, evenings linger long after dinner, and every season is enjoyed outdoors. A classic center-hall floor plan welcomes you inside, where a private home office and formal dining room flank the foyer before opening to a beautifully updated kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, a generous center island, quartz countertops, premium stainless steel appliances, double ovens, and abundant workspace for everyday living and entertaining. Just beyond the kitchen, the vaulted family room is the heart of the home with custom built-ins surrounding the fireplace, while a second main-level living room provides the perfect place to unwind, watch the game, or escape with a good book. A main-floor laundry room and powder bath add everyday convenience. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features double vanities, a large walk-in shower, and generous closet space. The other bedrooms are all comfortably sized, including one two-bedroom suite that may become the most coveted room on the bedroom level. Beautifully updated bathrooms and ample storage complete the upper level. The finished lower level offers even more flexibility with an expansive recreation room perfect for movie nights, game tables, or entertaining, a dedicated exercise room, an additional flex room currently used as a non-conforming bedroom, and a full bath. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors, custom plantation shutters, thoughtful updates, and multiple living spaces on every level make this a home that adapts beautifully to every stage of life. If you've been searching for room to spread out without sacrificing character, your search ends here.
