Description

Prime Mount Oread Location! This 1923 historic home sits on the southeast point of Mount Oread, originally platted as Fort Thatcher Place in 1911 and is considered one of the "most historic parts of Lawrence" according to multiple sources. This hilltop location was a look out over the golden valley from the southeast to southwest encompassing the Wakarusa river valley. From this very site people in 1863 were watching for Quantrill's Raiders before the Lawrence Massacre. Close to everything on the KU campus including Allen Fieldhouse, David Booth Memorial Stadium, Strong Hall, Wescoe Hall, Kansas Memorial Union and more. Described as an oasis in the heart of the city, the yard is full of trees offering exceptional privacy and abundant room for entertaining. There are two large brick patios, a large deck and a drive way that can accommodate 4 or more cars. The front of the home sits on Louisiana, while the back of the home sits on Court Street, a very rare feature. The home has 3 bedrooms, 2 full sun porches and two full baths on the 2nd level. On the main level you have a kitchen, eat in area for a small dining table, a formal dining room, living room, 1/2 bath and reading room. The home has a full basement, large attic, two detached garages for 3 cars, with a loft / playroom above the second garage. In the attic there is a large walk in cedar closet. The floors in the kitchen are heated. The house has a boiler and original radiators to heat the house plus Mitsubishi AC / Heat split units to provide comfort year round. Lots of storage room in the attic, basement and more. Home also has a Generac generator that runs on natural gas. Local Architect said the home is a candidate for a state and possible national historical preservation designation list. Ask about this for more information. This home has been well taken care of and is move in ready. *Listing agent is related to the seller.
