About This Home

Country Charm, Acreage & Opportunity Just South of Lawrence! Opportunities like this are getting harder to find in Douglas County! Located just off Highway 59, south of Lawrence and roughly halfway to Baldwin City, this 2.5-acre property offers a peaceful rural setting, mature trees, and plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors—all while remaining conveniently located between two communities. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,272 square feet of living space, including a bright sunroom that adds an inviting spot to relax and take in the surrounding landscape. A wrap-around deck provides plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, morning coffee, or simply enjoying the quiet setting. The property also features a detached garage/shop, additional storage buildings, and a charming little outbuilding with plenty of possibilities—it could become a playhouse, chicken coop, hobby space, or simply another storage building. Along the side of the home, a small fenced area surrounds a large fire pit, creating a great space for gathering with family and friends. The partial basement offers abundant storage and hobby space, along with a root-cellar area that could be put to a variety of uses. Whether you envision a workshop, garden storage, hobby room, or something entirely your own, there is plenty of potential to make the space work for you. This home needs some TLC, but that is also what makes it such an exciting opportunity. Bring your ideas, your vision, and a little elbow grease to create a property that truly reflects your style. The home and property are being offered strictly as-is. Inspections are welcome, but the seller will make no repairs. With 2.5 acres, a peaceful wooded setting, multiple outbuildings, and a location just minutes from Lawrence, properties in this price range are becoming increasingly rare in Douglas County. Don't miss your opportunity to make this one your own!
