Colonial Drive Area
Established west Lawrence streets with strong Deerfield school access
The Colonial Drive corridor, including Colonial Circle and Colonial Way, sits in the heart of west Lawrence, offering established single-family homes at some of the zip code's most accessible price points with a strong Deerfield Elementary feeder.
Colonial Drive, Colonial Circle, and Colonial Way form a quiet, looping cluster of residential streets developed primarily in the 1980s–1990s. Homes here are well-maintained, modestly sized single-family properties that appeal to first-time buyers, young families, and professionals who want a west-side address without a west-side premium.
The central west Lawrence location is one of the area's best assets, 6th Street retail and the K-10 bypass are both just a few minutes away, West Middle School and Free State High School are close, and downtown Lawrence is an easy drive in either direction.
