Sited on 26 acres with fenced pastures, a pond, indoor and outdoor riding arenas, and accessory buildings; it’s the ideal turn-key ranch opportunity. This property is easily commuted from both Lawrence and Topeka, all on paved roads. The home was built in 1860 in the Italianate style, the original owners kept this property in the family until 1977. It remained largely unrestored until the current Owners took residence in 2013. Their renovations, additions, and improvements provide lasting value and more modern livability. Built from native stone, the home was enlarged to include a main floor master suite, laundry, and inviting covered porch. Well suited for today’s needs with rural water service, a well for gardening and livestock, gas furnace, and supplemental wood stove. The solar powered, old-style barn has been converted for use as a stall barn; with tack and feed rooms, a spacious hay loft, and individual turnouts. Both an insulated 100′ x 72′ indoor arena and an expansive outdoor arena provide year-round riding and training opportunities.
