COUNTRY LIVING AT ITS FINEST! Nestled among mature trees just south of Lawrence in Baldwin City, this one-of-a-kind partial earth contact home offers privacy, protection, and peaceful country living. Built in 2006, this unique 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home combines comfort, functionality, and low-maintenance living in a beautiful natural setting.
The open-concept main level features the kitchen, dining, and living areas—perfect for gathering and entertaining. The home includes two ensuite bedrooms, one on the main level and another upstairs with double doors leading to a private deck overlooking the scenic property.
Accessibility was thoughtfully considered with near zero-entry access, a specially ordered 42” front door, main-level laundry, and a new ADA-compliant toilet. The earth contact design and surrounding hillside provide excellent storm protection and peace of mind.
Updates include custom wood cabinetry throughout, new main-level flooring, upgraded Onyx shower, double sinks and countertops in the upstairs ensuite, new water heater, 3 new exterior doors, plus refrigerator and dishwasher less than 3 years old that stay with the home. Low-maintenance concrete board siding and durable metal roof add lasting value.
The impressive 40x60 heated and cooled shop, added in 2017, is truly a standout feature! Complete with concrete floors, blown insulation, 3 large ceiling fans, its own propane tank, refrigerator, two 10x10 overhead doors with openers, 220 amp welder plug, and a 50-amp RV hookup—ideal for hobbies, storage, business use, or recreational vehicles.
Enjoy beautiful eastern sunrise views from the front porch with easy access to Hwy 56, K-10, University of Kansas, and Baker University. Seller is also offering a 1-year home warranty for added buyer peace of mind.
