12814 W 65th Street Tucked inside Shawnee's Walden Pond neighborhood, this custom California Contemporary offers the kind of character, setting, and care that is increasingly difficult to find. Known for its distinctive homes, mature trees, and private neighborhood pond, Walden Pond provides a setting that stands apart from typical subdivision living. From the moment you arrive, the cut stone facade, manicured landscaping, mature trees, and tasteful exterior lighting set the tone. The backyard is a true retreat featuring an expansive deck that spans the length of the home, direct deck access from the main-level primary suite, a peaceful koi pond, hot tub area, walkout basement patio, and large storage shed. Inside, natural light pours through dramatic windows, highlighting soaring ceilings and architectural details that give the home warmth and personality. Multiple living areas, two fireplaces, a grand entry, and an oversized laundry room create a layout that is equally suited for everyday living and entertaining. The home has been thoughtfully updated over the last five years, including remodeled bathrooms, basement renovations, new flooring throughout, large rear windows, replaced doors, a new garage door, gutter covers, a skylight, and an updated pond pump. The kitchen features a refrigerator purchased in 2025, along with an oven and dishwasher replaced in 2022. Both refrigerators, as well as the washer and dryer, will remain with the home. Lovingly maintained by the same owners for the past 17 years, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Walden Pond's truly distinctive properties, offering exceptional outdoor living, timeless character, and extensive updates in one of Shawnee's most unique neighborhoods.
