Outside, the home sits on a well-established lot with mature trees and landscaping that provide a sense of privacy and serenity. The covered front porch is the kind of space that invites morning coffee or quiet evenings spent watching the world go by—an ideal blend of small-town charm and urban accessibility. Just steps away is South Park, one of Lawrence’s most beloved green spaces, perfect for weekend picnics, outdoor concerts, and everyday recreation. The location is truly unbeatable. In addition to being less than five minutes from the KU campus, the home is close to Massachusetts Street’s dynamic collection of shops, restaurants, cafes, and local hot spots.
