Looking to make Old West Lawrence your home? Look no further than this beautifully crafted 2.5-story Craftsman. Built in 1910 and lovingly maintained by long-term stewards, it features original woodwork, fixtures, leaded glass, radiators, and a graceful staircase that honors the home’s rich heritage. The modernized kitchen, updated baths, and finished third-floor loft provide comfort and functional space designed for today’s lifestyle. A high-efficiency boiler, passive stainless steel water heater, and central air on the upper floors ensure year-round comfort. Laundry hookups on the second-floor sleeping porch and in the basement offer flexibility. The home’s setting in Old West Lawrence is as meaningful as its architecture. Situated on land once part of Lane’s First Addition, it carries connections to Lawrence’s founding families and a history shaped by the aftermath of Quantrill’s Raid. Over the years, this residence has housed civic leaders, KU deans, and preservation-minded owners who have lovingly restored and enhanced it. Enjoy shaded gardens, a detached garage, and a neighborhood known for its welcoming spirit. Located just minutes from Massachusetts Street and the new KU Gateway District, this home puts the heart of Lawrence within easy reach. Square footage is approximate. Buyer/agent to verify.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
