Tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees on 26 private acres, this property feels worlds away, yet sits just three miles from Lawrence. The home itself has an almost treehouse-like quality, surrounded by leafy views and elevated among the trees, creating an extraordinary sense of privacy and connection to the landscape. Designed to take full advantage of its setting, the home offers multiple spaces for gathering, relaxing and enjoying the view. Three decks, including two covered decks, extend the living space outdoors, while walls of windows bring the surrounding landscape into the home. Cedar, stucco and stone construction complement the natural setting and give the home a distinctive character. Outside, the property becomes its own private retreat. A salt water swimming pool, expansive outdoor living areas and the surrounding acreage create space for everything from quiet mornings to large gatherings. The setting feels secluded and peaceful, with mature trees, open ground and water adding to the sense that this is much more than simply a home on acreage. For the equestrian buyer, the infrastructure is already here. The horse barn offers room for up to five stalls if partitioned, along with a concrete center aisle and insulated tack room with keyless entry. Fenced pastures, paddocks, a round pen and covered areas provide additional space for horses and day-to-day care. A separate shop/work barn with keyless entry and a remote-operated garage door adds valuable space for equipment, storage and projects. A gated driveway with keypad and remote access provides a fitting entrance to the property and an additional layer of privacy. Despite the feeling of being tucked away in the country, downtown Lawrence, KU and the conveniences of town are only minutes away. This is a property that offers the freedom of country living without giving up connection to town, and a setting that is increasingly difficult to find this close to Lawrence.
