🏈 K-State at Cincinnati
Saturday, Sept. 26 | 6 p.m. | Watch on ESPN2
The Wildcats are away this week, so this one’s a pizza-and-football-at-home plan. KU has a bye, but I’ll have my Jayhawks back on the list when they play! 😉

🎣 Kansas Bass Nation Championship
Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 26–27 | Milford Lake

Not to be dramatic, but she got a little work done. 💅🏡

Fresh exterior paint = an entirely new first impression.

And now 1028 W 5th St has another update worth sharing: a **new price of $235,000**.

Same house. Fresh face. Better price.

No lengthy Realtor spiel from me. I’m just saying… she’s looking pretty good. 😏

Step inside this well-maintained, recently remodeled home...

✨ The updates? Already done.
🔨 The garage/shop? Already built.
🌳 The backyard? Already waiting for BBQs, pets, and backyard football games.

This is the kind of home that lets you skip the renovation headaches and start enjoying it from day one.

Inside, you'll find updates that make the home feel fresh and move-in ready. Outside, you've got a huge backyard and an oversized garage/shop that's ready for projects, hobbies, extra storage—or all three.

And if you've been hoping to add your own personal touch, the partially unfinished basement gives you the perfect opportunity to create the space you've always wanted, whether that's a home gym, game room, extra living space, or something completely your own.
