About This Home

Custom built in 2015, this Langston Hughes home is perfect for the discerning buyer seeking luxury, efficiency, and craftsmanship! Set on over half an acre, this one-of-a-kind home offers breathtaking 360 views of Lawrence and Douglas County, wrapped in timeless stucco and designed for comfort, sustainability, and beauty. No detail was overlooked, with natural luxury finishes throughout, including hardwood, bamboo, cork, granite, travertine, and marble. Designed for modern living with old-world craftsmanship, the home features a heated driveway, a 9.6kW solar panel system with three lithium battery backups, and a smartly designed rainwater catchment system. With the solar and battery setup, the home can operate independently for up to a week. The home’s heating systems are remarkably versatile and efficient, featuring a hydronic radiant slab on the entry level, a boiler (installed 3 years ago), radiators, solar gain, seven mini-splits, and a cozy gas log fireplace. Comfort is truly at your fingertips, no matter the season. Unique features abound, including a custom grocery dumbwaiter from the walkout basement to the kitchen and primary suite, upgraded Marvin windows, and energy-saving passive home construction using staggered 2x6 framing to minimize thermal loss. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the abundant fruit-bearing trees and bushes, a fenced vegetable garden, and a separate herb garden just off the back patio. Additional drainage was added during construction for optimal landscape management. An oversized garage comfortably accommodates up to three vehicles, while two rainwater tanks — easily connected to the roof each season — add to the property’s impressive self-sufficiency. If you’re seeking a home that combines thoughtful luxury, sustainable living, and remarkable craftsmanship, 6208 Blue Nile Drive is truly without equal! All taxes and msmts are approx and should be verified by Buyer.
