Property Description

Charming, quaint, and quiet best describe this well maintained home in the heart of Lawrence. This 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home sits on a picturesque street nestled between Lawrence High School and the University of Kansas. Though this home is less than a five minute walk from Allen Fieldhouse, the neighborhood is very quiet with school parking prohibited during daytime hours. The first floor boasts a cozy living area with a wood burning fire place and an updated kitchen with open cabinetry. Upstairs, you will find the primary suite along with two guests bedrooms and a guest bathroom. The basement is home to another living area, a third guest bedroom and a laundry/bath area. The outdoor living space is perfect for morning coffee or an evening cocktail with plenty of space for entertaining. There is a screened-in porch on the south side of the home, a deck off the back, including a brick paver patio and walkways throughout the backyard. There is also a detached 2-car garage with room for storage. The loft above the garage has been finished and used as a personal yoga studio. This home is currently an active and properly licensed short term rental. If you are an investor, this would be a turn key rental available to purchase in time for the World Cup. All furnishings in the home could be sold in addition to the sale of the property. Sunflower agents, please contact the listing agent to schedule a showing. This cozy home is perfect for university personnel, public school employees or those who want to call the heart of Lawrence their home.
