Online Auction! An Invitation to Timeless Elegance: The House-on-the-Hill Estate. Bidding is open and will conclude April 5th @ 2:30pm. Imagine you re walking into an old Southern mansion, through the front door which once belonged to a house in Shreveport, into the entrance hall decorated high above with tobacco- and acanthus-leaf motifs, facing a grand stairway. To your left is the classically elegant living room, with hand-laid parquet floors, 12 ceiling, and French doors leading out onto the terrace. To your right is the walnut-paneled library, dramatically illuminated by a window of ruby-red Bohemian etched glass. All of the stone fireplaces came from a house in Memphis. The cypress arch over the bar came from a Mississippi steamboat. Intricate plasterwork and traditional details feature throughout. Immediately dubbed The House-on-the-Hill when it was completed in 1971, the house became an instant landmark. Governors and movie stars have been entertained here, and many glamorous receptions have been held. From its prominent position in a parklike setting, this showpiece Greek Revival-style mansion commands long views in all directions. The 82-acre grounds, one of the last undeveloped sites in East Wichita, include native Kansas grassland, dense woodland and a well-stocked pond. Although exhibiting a sophisticated historical style, this comfortable family home nevertheless includes an immense modern kitchen with double ovens and sinks and a warming drawer, a dining room, master suite with separate his-and-hers bathrooms, 5 more large bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 half-baths, a family room with wet bar, a playroom, 2 pool dressing rooms, and a storm shelter. Also on the grounds are a 10 deep swimming pool, garages for 7 cars, and 2 outbuildings for hobbies or equipment storage. At the bottom of the hill, almost hidden in the trees, a full-sized log cabin serves as an office or guest house, with an outbuilding that would be perfect for storage or as additional workspace. Located on the eastern edge of Sedgwick County in Andover School District, this one-of-a-kind property, which has never before been offered for sale, is a true Wichita landmark.
