Property Description

Located 8 miles south of Lawrence in the unincorporated town Pleasant Grove. The unique barn home conversion resides on one of the highest plateaus in Douglas County on 11 acres. This Gable Barn with a hay mow was part of an early European settlement in the 1870s. For approximately 100 years it served as a barn for a productive dairy farm. In the 1970s it was converted into a home. The Brown family had the opportunity to purchase the original basketball flooring from Allen Fieldhouse. They repurposed all the flooring except the K piece, installing it in throughout the home. Much of the 3,600 square feet contains this flooring. Just think, the GOAT “Wilt the Stilt” Chamberlain played on this floor! The current owners have enjoyed being the stewards for 20 years, improving the property with recent bathroom and kitchen renovations, new double pane windows and a high efficiency HVAC system. The property contains a mix of green space and old growth timber to the west. The compound still retains a grain silo, old windmill pump, barn, 1950s storage building (could be an art studio or office) and a newer one car garage. This is a magical place. It gushes with a rural Kansas vibe and rich KU basketball history. Who's next?
