The Veranda Venue – Premier Wedding & Event Estate in Lawrence, KS 1431 N 1900 Road | Lawrence, KS 66044 Nestled on a peaceful country road just minutes from downtown Lawrence and the University of Kansas, The Veranda Venue offers a rare opportunity to own a fully operational, turn-key event estate blending rural charm with refined elegance. Purpose-built for weddings, retreats, and upscale gatherings, this unique property is zoned for both overnight lodging and events. The main estate sleeps up to 23 guests across 5 king and 5 queen bedrooms, plus 3 daybeds. Each room is styled with antique furnishings, luxury linens, and curated decor—providing a boutique hotel experience in a private home setting. Common areas feature expansive living and dining spaces, blackout curtains, and custom furniture. A private 1-bed/1-bath manager’s suite above the garage includes a full kitchen and living room. The climate-controlled event barn hosts up to 250 guests and features soaring ceilings, exposed beams, handcrafted wood elements, ADA-compliant restrooms, and a chair lift to the upper level. The venue includes high-speed Starlink internet, a warming kitchen, and a service bar for streamlined event operations. Two private get-ready suites enhance the guest experience: a bridal suite with velvet seating, vanities, and floral backdrop, and a groom’s lounge with leather sectional, TV, and private bar. The extensive in-house décor inventory—arches, signage, florals, table settings—reduces setup costs and simplifies planning. Beautifully maintained grounds offer outdoor patios, scenic photo locations, and space for cocktail hours or lawn games. With strong infrastructure, commercial-grade cleaning systems, and a respected local reputation, The Veranda Venue is a ready-to-go business with lasting potential.
