Millwood Home of the Day: Affordable Charm on a Corner Lot at 525 Washington

525 Washington St | Salina, KS

Affordable, charming, and move-in ready, this updated corner-lot home at 525 Washington Street proves that character and comfort can still come at an accessible price point.

Built in 1920, the home blends classic structure with thoughtful modern updates. Recent improvements include newer windows, siding, paint, laminate flooring, and carpet, offering peace of mind while preserving the home’s original charm.

The main level features one conforming bedroom along with a second, smaller non-conforming bedroom that works well as a home office, nursery, or flex space. A fully updated bathroom is conveniently located on the main floor. Downstairs, the partially finished basement expands the living space with an additional non-conforming bedroom, a second bathroom, and attached laundry, making the layout far more versatile than you might expect at this price point.

Outside, the corner lot provides extra breathing room, complemented by an oversized detached one-car garage complete with a workbench, ideal for hobbies, storage, or weekend projects.

With 1,302 square feet, 2 bathrooms, central air, forced-air heating, and a location close to downtown amenities, this home checks a lot of boxes for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a solid property in a well-established neighborhood.
