917 Delaware was built in1875 as a boarding house. With five original exterior doors, two of them led directly to the basement, reportedly rented by railroad workers. These four basement rooms had dirt floors until 2001. A family occupied the main floor and cooked the meals for the tenants. The second floor was accessible from it’s own front door to a landing that led guests directly upstairs, which legend tells, was a business of its own – a brothel!

917 Delaware is situated in the heart of East Lawrence - Lawrence’s oldest as well as its most ethnically and economically diverse neighborhood. The neighborhood has attracted artists, workers and families for generations and has experienced revitalization in recent years. Nearby house renovations and new constructions by Struct/Restruct at 9th & Pennsylvania, 927 Delaware and 1001 Delaware add to the vibrancy of this evolving neighborhood. With a coffee shop across the street, nearby Burroughs trail, and more businesses slated to be opened nearby in the next year, this property offers an ideal walking and biking lifestyle with its close access to Downtown Lawrence and the burgeoning East Lawrence scene.

It's All In The Details

Rare opportunity in historic East Lawrence. 1875 Italianate met Dan Rockhill, Scott Trettel and Matt Jones in recent years. There is not another home like this, anywhere. It will foster pleasurable living. The Krause’s have lovingly and spared no expense to create a home that is a work of sculpture. The materials include stone, concrete, glass, steel & quality wood all in just the perfect combination. The kitchen cannot be matched, the wine room is exquisite and there is even a "mother-in-law" apartment that has two bedrooms, a kitchen and bath. The location is in the heart of East Lawrence next to the 9th Street Corridor and close proximity to Mass. St. Who will get here first?
