Welcome to one of Lawrence’s most unique homes 1516 Powers!. The intersection where modern industrial design meets intentional living. Tucked away on a quiet, low-traffic street, this thoughtfully designed property offers both privacy and character. Inside, you’ll find an efficient layout featuring exposed wood ceilings, sliding doors, and flexible living spaces designed to maximize both function and style. Smart storage solutions throughout, including additional overhead storage in the bathroom and above the coat closet, help keep everyday living simple and organized. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a newer roof (6 years), furnace (5 years), A/C (3.5 years), and tankless water heater for energy efficiency and lower utility costs. The outdoor space is just as special, with mature Japanese red maples, seasonal blooms throughout the year, and a fenced yard perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A detached outbuilding adds valuable storage or workspace. Floral images and tree leaves provided by the seller to showcase the beauty of the yard. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that truly stands apart, perfect for those seeking a simplified lifestyle, creative space, or investment opportunity.
