Deerfield Home for Sale

Deerfield is a Lawrence neighborhood with mature trees and forested backyards. Oaks, maples and pines surround homes built between the 1960s and the 1980s. Potential homebuyers can find split-levels, bilevels, contemporary builds and ranch-style homes in the neighborhood. Deerfield Park features basketball courts, ball fields, a playground and a skate park. The nearby Lawrence Country Club offers its members an 18-hole course and several dining options, like the Tiki Hut, which sits by the pool. West Sixth Street, on the neighborhood’s south end, has many restaurants, and Kobe Japanese Steakhouse is a local favorite. Students can attend highly rated schools, including Deerfield Elementary School, West Middle School and Lawrence Free State High School. The annual Santa’s Lights event occurs just outside of the neighborhood. From Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, the holiday light display illuminates a residential area.

Bus stops line West Sixth Street, and Lawrence Memorial Hospital is about 2 miles west.
