East Lawrence · Lawrence, KS 66046
Brook Creek
Parkside value on Lawrence's east side
Brook Creek sits east of Haskell Avenue around its namesake park, an unpretentious neighborhood of cottages and ranches that delivers some of the best value close to central Lawrence.
Built around Brook Creek Park and the creek corridor that gives it its name, the neighborhood mixes pre-war cottages with 1950s and 60s ranches on good-sized lots. The Haskell Rail-Trail and Burroughs Creek Trail border it, giving residents a straight, off-street bike ride to the Arts District and downtown.
Brook Creek's pricing makes it a genuine first-rung neighborhood, buyers priced out of East Lawrence proper or Barker find the same porch-and-garden character here for less. Investors like it for the same reason: solid houses, steady tenants, modest entry prices.
