1729 Mississippi Street Welcome to this charming turn-of-the-century home in the highly sought-after University Place neighborhood—one of Lawrence’s most established and picturesque areas. A thoughtful addition expanded the living space to include a fabulous updated kitchen with tall ceilings, abundant natural light, and a spacious primary suite. The main level offers a bedroom with a convenient half bath, while upstairs you’ll find the inviting primary suite. Original features such as hardwood floors, period fixtures, and architectural details have been lovingly maintained throughout. A detached two-car garage—accessed by a maintained alley—is a rare find in this historic part of town. The majority of the backyard is fenced and features raised flower beds and a sunny urban garden area with plenty of room for flowers, herbs, and vegetables. The basement provides ample storage with built-in shelving. Ideally located just a few blocks from the University of Kansas campus, Mount Oread, and the Chancellor’s residence, this home also offers quick access to Lawrence High School, neighborhood markets, local cafés, and downtown Lawrence. Enjoy the character of a classic home in a walkable, tree-lined area that blends history, charm, and convenience. All taxes and measurements are approximate
