Behold one of the grandest streets of Lawrence under a canopy of 60 year old majestic trees shading the residents. Architect Design/Builder Dana Dowd constructed this custom forever home for the developer of Pioneer Ridge on the west City Limit of town in 1964. It has sturdy integrity, solid brick construction, high quality design elements such as copper flashing on the 2nd story windows, and has been treated respectfully by the one-family owner/occupants. They have added an impact resistant shingled roof, Top-"Class 4" DaVinci side shingles for the Mansard roof, asbestos mitigation in the basement, foundation stabilization that has engineer approval and a transferable warranty; new 200 AMP electrical circuit breaker box with upgraded grounding (2026), built in shelves and workbench in basement, built-in shelves in upstairs office/bedroom, built-in primary dresser and cedar closets, and other maintained amenities like new blue tooth garage door openers, a back yard perimeter wood fence, backyard patio, great neighbors and schools. Excellent and convenient location for groceries, auto gas & services, parks, and retail and service options on nearby 6th Street (Hwy 24/40). Explore the peaceful setting with one entrance/exit to local traffic departing and coming home. This is an Estate Seller and an economical Best Value 5 bedroom home in the Lawrence market. A $30,000 price reduction was in consideration of anticipated Buyer upgrades to flooring and laundry. >>> >> > One devoted family has cared for and improved this home since it was built by the Haley development team with respected design/build architect Dana Dowd. Homes with this kind of pedigree, craftsmanship, and character do not come along often. Sellers are motivated and would love to find a loving buyer.
