Description

OPEN SUNDAY, MAY 24 - 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM ~ ~ 917 E 1264 Road is a one-of-a-kind home resting in a central clearing of forest on a manageable, mostly timbered, 2.9 acres. The calm country peace is just minutes from bustling Lawrence and the University of Kansas. The hard surface roads allow a quick jettison down Highway 59, away from town, until a couple of downshifts and a couple of side road juts wind through the Long Shadows development. At the 917 E 1264 Rd mailbox a short country gravel driveway ascends to your sheltered refuge entrances. Yes, it's a house with common elements: 4-bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a 2-car attached garage with work space. Don't expect a replica of the common cut-to-fit box on rectangular lots in the town-bound subdivisions. This home design was researched by the professor - it was a nationally recognized plan engineered by Boise Cascade Corporation, trumpeted by the American Wood Council, and featured in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. It featured innovative building systems, passive energy considerations, and efficient construction. The art educators/owners purchased plans and negotiated a premium preferred lot split in the Douglas County Long Shadows subdivision within the Lawrence school district. They then added artful touches and creative brilliance to the plan's natural sunshine. The standard 1,000-1200 ft plan was expanded to a 2,700 ft., 1.5 story variant, with bedroom suites on the main and upper levels, tall ceilings, skylights, and a panorama view of nature through the picture window frames. As you enter, consider the interior space as cubic feet volume - roomy, breathable, and softly lit by diffused bright illumination from the sky. The base plan was functionally enhanced by adding a crawl space for home systems access and a 9'x15' basement mechanical room and shelter. (A limestone shelf in the hillside prevented a full basement but revealed a solid foundational support from Mother earth). They chose timeless building material finishes: hardwoods, marble, granite, stainless steel, brick, and glass. The design is clean and fine. No embellished extra scrolls, cartouches, synthetic appliqués, medallions or highly intricate, carved statement pieces. It's an escape from ornate. Truth? If you're curious about living in a work of art, see it yourself. It's jazz. It's not easy to explain. "Artistecture" - a functional house as an art form. "Les Clos des Arbres" (the enclosure of trees) is an integrated art, land, and architectural modification of a nationally recognized house plan by bright and ambitious professors of art. The personal touches include the curved stainless steel kitchen counter and Danish wood stove option to accompany the niche sauna, wet bar, lounges, five decks, and quietly inconspicuous pantry and laundry, conveniently adjacent to the kitchen. Live artfully. This is your ticket to unique. (Note: There is a security system. By agreeing to tour, potential buyers and agents may be subject to audio and visual recording).
