$15,000 BUYER INCENTIVE FROM SELLER with an accepted contract by November 30, 2026. Midcentury character, a rare double lot, and a brand-new roof distinguish this 1954 home in central Lawrence. Originally owned by Mel and Betty Fisher of Round Corner Drug Store, it has changed hands only once and has been thoughtfully maintained by its current owners since 1999. Expansive windows, hardwood floors, wide hallways, spacious bedrooms, and built-ins create an inviting, functional layout. Original boomerang kitchen countertops, fireplaces, vintage basement flooring, and the primary suite's pink bathroom preserve its distinctive character. A remodeled hall bathroom features imported porcelain tile. Updates include redwood siding, Andersen living and dining room windows, and a Pella sliding door. The 27-foot-deep garage offers room for larger vehicles or hobbies, while a full attic with a finished floor provides abundant storage. The walkout basement includes a full second kitchen and flexible conforming and nonconforming spaces. An established garden supports birds and pollinators across the expansive double lot. Enjoy exceptional outdoor space near KU, downtown Lawrence, parks, dining, and everyday amenities.
