About This Home
I am pleased to share a rare opportunity in Old West Lawrence. This historic Italianate home embodies our European origin story beginning in 1855. The 3 lots were sold to Olive Beach who was the first to construct a modest two room house in 1868. The home began to take its current grand architectural form when William and Mary Harris purchased it in 1871. Twelve years later the Sinclair’s transformed it into the gorgeous Italianate we appreciate today. For the past 62 years the Godwin family has lovingly cared for the home. We are now seeking the next steward. The home resides on a huge 1⁄2 acre lot surrounded by mature trees and plantings. The architectural detailing and brick work are stunning. The interior features a drop-dead gorgeous staircase, beautiful fixtures, 3 ornamental fireplaces, ornate plasterwork and exceptional stained art glass. The home is structurally sound & move in ready but there are things the next steward might want to update or renovate. A contributing home in the OWL historic district makes it eligible for up to 40 % State tax credits for approved improvements. We look forward to locating the next stewards of this architecturally significant home who will carry on the rich narrative that embodies our shared history. Who’s next?
