About This Home
2806 Schwarz Road — A Legacy Home in Pioneer Ridge This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lawrence history — a one-owner home built by the very developer who shaped Pioneer Ridge. The original blueprints are yours to keep. Constructed of solid brick with a gracious slate entry and winding staircase, this home was built not for a season, but for generations. The main floor offers formal living and dining rooms, a warm family room anchored by a raised brick hearth and gas-jetted fireplace, and an informal dining area graced by an Italian tole ware chandelier. This home is not an LVP flip dressed up for HGTV — every inch reflects the intention and craft of a developer who built it for keeps. Upstairs, five bedrooms feature hardwood floors throughout, and a primary suite with a cedar-lined dressing room closet and built-in sconce-style lighted dresser. Thoughtful details abound: a laundry chute, a kitchen computer desk, Bluetooth garage door openers, copper window flashing, and a new 200-amp electrical panel. The roof is no afterthought — DaVinci plastic Class-IV designer shakes and Malarkey Impact-Resistant shingles offer curb appeal, insurance savings, and lasting protection. Additional built-in security features come with the home. The front rooms look onto a canopy of 60-year-old-oaks. The fenced backyard is a private oasis, its large patio enclosed by antique wrought iron fencing salvaged from the original City of Lawrence Hospital — a conversation piece as enduring as the home itself. The full unfinished basement — complete with workbench, pegboard, shelving, and a roughed-in bathroom — awaits your vision. The City of Lawrence restricted through-traffic on Schwarz Road from 6th Street, preserving the neighborhood's quiet, pedestrian-friendly character. Take it all in and converse with neighbors strolling, biking, riding or touring — sidewalks, oak canopy, and the kind of street that invites you home. Located minutes from Dillons, "Lawrence's Best" Westside 66 Service Station, Lawrence Country Club, Centennial Park, Ludlam Park, Deerfield Elementary, West Middle School, and Free State High School. One devoted family has cared for and improved this home since it was built more than a dozen years before the Bicentennial. Homes with this kind of pedigree, craftsmanship, and character do not come along twice. Compare it to anything. Then make your move. > (Family has cared for the home and it has been regularly maintained to a high standard. The Property is "priced to sell" and is offered "As Is, in its current condition" with encouragement to Buyers to inspect and check details of importance to them. Major investments have been made to asbestos removal, foundation maintenance, new electrical box, Long-life, Class IV roofing materials, sump pump and clearing of stormwater line to street, and new Bluetooth remote-controlled garage door openers.)
