2301 Massachusetts Street

This is one of those homes people slow down to admire—and now, it can be yours. Built in 1908 in Lawrence’s very first suburb, Breezedale, this iconic home is officially recognized on both the National and Local Historic Registers. But what really makes it special isn’t just the history—it’s how beautifully it lives today. Inside, the rooms feel bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully updated. The family room is filled with natural light, the kitchen has been remodeled for modern living, and the bathrooms have been refreshed while still honoring the home’s original character. The primary suite is surprisingly spacious, complete with a walk-in closet—something you don’t often find in a home of this era. The third-floor loft is a standout feature. It’s open, airy, and incredibly flexible—perfect for a creative studio, game room, second living space, or even an additional primary suite. It’s the kind of space that grows and changes with you. Outside, the property really opens up. Sitting on two full city lots, the yard feels private and peaceful, surrounded by mature trees and established landscaping. There’s also a detached studio with its own bathroom, closet, and windows—ideal for guests, a home office, art space, or whatever you imagine. What makes this home even more special is its location. You’re tucked into a quiet, residential setting, yet just minutes from downtown Lawrence, local shops and restaurants, parks, and the University of Kansas. It’s the best of both worlds—calm at home, connected to everything. This isn’t just a house. It’s a landmark, a legacy, and a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Lawrence history.
