Property Description

"Coming Soon" will be ACTIVE on August 29, 2026. OPEN HOUSE details available through your Realtor. Sellers are looking for December transfer of title and Buyer possession. Wait list is available to receive notification for showings. Offers to purchase may be presented to Sellers sight unseen. Coming Soon means No tours or showings are allowed at this time. Contact your agent to schedule. This is recorded in history as an original pioneer's home of Lawrence; Col. George Collamore, first mayor of Lawrence, lived at this site during and before Quantrill's Raid on Aug. 21, 1863, according to Katie Armitage's History of Lawrence. It is an iconic contributing structure and truly in the bull's eye "heart" of the National Register of Historic Places, "Old West Lawrence" neighborhood. (OWL)* Certified improvements to the home qualify for 40% tax credits and may be used personally, or sold to a 3rd party (check with your tax advisor). The home's northwest den and main level converted porch on the east have both been used as bedrooms. On the 2nd level are three (3) bedrooms, a renovated full bath and a newer, dedicated 3/4 bathroom for the primary southwest bedroom. The main level 3/4 bath served the converted east porch bedroom; the space is flexible and is currently used for other purposes. The laundry is on the east main level nearby. There is a full, unfinished basement with shelving, mechanical systems, a workbench, and refrigerator. The corner lot has beautiful flowers and plants selected by the current stewards. The location has nuanced strengths as it is insulated from traffic flow on 6th and 9th Street and is surrounded by renovated structures that are in the upper limits of residential values in town. 7th street has subtle traffic baffles with roundabouts and stop signs and the historic brick streets and stop signs on named streets tend to slow cars from zooming through the neighborhood. Pedestrians tour over wide sidewalks past the horse hitching posts and architecturally diverse house designs dating back to the 1850's. Walkers are regular and the neighborhood dogs are recognized as family by residents. Proximity to KU, LMH, I-70, City and Douglas County offices, parks, swimming pool, library, post office, and retail, office, dining and entertainment options downtown make OWL a destination lifestyle and convenient choice for generational living.
