Three acres on the quiet edge of Lawrence.

Built in 2023, this two-bedroom sits on three acres just outside the city, where the view out the large sliding glass doors is open countryside rather than a neighbor's fence. The angled metal roof, pier foundation, and all-electric mini-split system were all chosen with long-term efficiency in mind — nothing here feels like an afterthought. Deck brackets are already in place along the exterior, so expanding the outdoor living space is a natural next step whenever the time is right.

The property does a lot of the living outside. A fenced garden, greenhouse, chicken coop, and established fruit plantings — blackberries, strawberries, gooseberries, peach and persimmon trees among them — are already in the ground. A water catchment system feeds the garden, and the drainage is laid out to direct runoff toward a pond on the property. The detached outbuilding handles the practical side: workshop, loft, and covered parking or equipment storage.
