Description
PRICE REDUCED! Located less than 15 minutes south of Lawrence, and nestled in the timber-covered hills near Clinton lake, this recreational property with home site provides seclusion, privacy, and exceptional hunting with all the modern comforts of home. No expense was spared in the construction of the 2700 square foot 2 bed/ 2 bath Morton style building. Plenty of living space with high ceilings throughout with a garage and shop providing plenty of room for the family and friends as well as storage for all your toys and equipment. The south side of the structure has a concrete patio with a 6 person hot tub with a new ozonator and heater. Energy efficient, spacious, with plenty of additional storage space, this tastefully designed cabin is the perfect weekend getaway for the family, and for the hunting buddies alike. The foundation has frost free footings allowing for expansion of the living space if desired. Currently, there is a small established vineyard, with a variety of grapes for eating and winemaking. There are raised garden beds and various berries and fruit. Blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries overflow your basket while the orchard of 26 fruit trees ripens in the sun. The apples, pear, peach, and cherry trees are established and producing fruit and will only increase in size for years to come. Buckets of elderberries can be picked at a time for pies, wines, and jams. All produce is fenced to protect from wildlife and watered by a new irrigation system making this hobby farm turn key and ready to go. The property has approx. 10 acres of flat, open space at its highest point that can be used to either expand the vineyard, build an additional home, or even fence for cattle or other livestock of your choosing. The balance of the property is heavily timbered slopes and ridges providing excellent cover for deer and turkey alike. Although small in acreage, this property is large in the success category when it comes to hunting. Flocks of over 70 turkeys at a time can be seen in the spring, and the deer hunting is second to none. The current owner has shot several trophy class bucks including one he arrowed with 21 points, scoring in the mid 180’s. This isn't a fluke, as there have been several larger mature deer captured on camera since! The surrounding neighbors allow little to no hunting, providing an opportunity to hunt a healthy and mature deer heard. There is a trail system through the timber that can be used for hiking, ATV riding and/or utilized as travel routes for wildlife and the new owner alike. This property sits just minutes away from both Clinton Lake and Lone Star Lake, making the location ideal. Options for great view sites of the farmland and timbered hills below. If you are looking for a country getaway, a hobby farm, a vineyard, or place close to Lawrence to build your dream home.
