About this home
Welcome to 5426 S. Wayne Avenue—where timeless Worthman craftsmanship meets an impressive lineup of modern updates. Tucked into the iconic Woodhurst community, this rare 5-bedroom bi-level offers more than 2,800 sq. ft. of flexible living, multiple gathering spaces, and a floor plan you simply won’t find anywhere else. Curb appeal is a true standout thanks to a brand-new roof, gutters, cupola, and siding (2024), all paired with mature trees and lush landscaping that frame the inviting covered front porch. Step inside to a home that beautifully merges original character—wrought iron banisters, warm woodwork, and a unique mid-century style—with meaningful improvements throughout. The main level opens to an airy living and dining room, where Bushey sliding doors (2018) extend the space onto a charming Juliette-style balcony overlooking the private backyard. The renovated kitchen (2022) shines with refinished cabinetry, granite counters, and a Whirlpool appliance suite—thoughtfully updated to support everyday convenience and memorable holiday hosting. Down the hall, two guest bedrooms and a full bath accompany the sunlit primary suite, complete with room for a king-sized bed and a beautifully remodeled ensuite with walk-in shower (2020). The lower level doubles the living potential with a cozy brick-anchored family room, perfect for movie nights or a home library. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated full bath (2013) offer flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, office space, or hobbies. An oversized rec room gives you even more room to spread out—ideal for play, fitness, crafting, or the hangout zone of your dreams. With meaningful updates across nearly every major system, two fully functional living levels, and a layout built for comfort and connection, 5426 S. Wayne Avenue is truly one-of-a-kind. All that’s missing is the next owner to come in and enjoy the work that’s already been done. Could that be you?
