About this property

76.71± Acres - Private Lake Retreat & Recreational Estate Jefferson County, Kansas Own your own lake! Properties like this don't come around often! A stocked 10.7-acre private lake, three separate outbuildings including a full horse setup, wooded hillsides and hay ground, abundant wildlife, and a comfortable home overlooking it all, sitting at the end of a dead-end road in Jefferson County. This is a rare, turn-key combination of recreation, equestrian-ready infrastructure, and privacy, all on one 76.71-acre tract. The Home: Built in 1987, this earth-contact home offers 1,208 square feet of open-concept living at the end of 126th St, overlooking the lake. 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bath. Open concept living/kitchen area. Newer appliances, washer and dryer all included. Wood burning fire place. Large pantry. 2-car garage with an attached butler's kitchen and loft above. Generac whole-house generator for backup power. The Lake: A 10.7-acre lake anchors the property, holding large bass, crappie, and catfish for anglers who want serious water without leaving home. A screened gazebo sits right on the lake, perfect for evening fishing, morning coffee, or watching the sun go down over the water. A dedicated pump house draws from the lake to irrigate the garden and yard. The Hunting & Wildlife: Deer, waterfowl, turkey, and quail are all abundant on the property, making this a genuine multi-species hunting tract as well as a working farm making it a rare setup where recreation and agriculture share the same ground. The Land: The acreage is a mix of brome pasture/hay meadow and wooded hillsides, cross-fenced and ready for horses or livestock. Infrastructure is already in place for horses, with a horse barn, tack room, and automatic waterer. 3 additional ponds located across the property. Three Outbuildings: Few properties come with this much covered space already in place, all wired with power and ready to use!! Horse Barn: A huge plus for horse owners, complete with a tack room and automatic waterer, this barn means the work of setting up for horses is already done for you. Large Shop: Partially heated and cooled, suited for equipment, projects, or a workshop. Equipment Shed / Hay Storage Barn: Additional covered storage for machinery and hay. Whether you're looking for a private fishing and hunting retreat, a home base for horses and livestock, or simply a quiet piece of Kansas at the end of the road. This property offers just about everything you could ask for only 30 minutes from Lawrence and 20 minutes from Leavenworth. Taxes $3,274.98

Questions to ask before you buy

Questions worth investigating for any waterfront property. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

1. Who owns the shoreline and the land under the water, and are there easements or public-access rights along it?Ownership can stop at a high-water line, a survey line or a seawall. A title search and survey answer this, not the listing.
2. Is a dock, slip, lift or mooring included, and do the rights transfer to you?Docks can be shared, leased, assigned by an association or held under a permit that does not automatically transfer.
3. What permits exist for the dock, seawall or other shoreline structures, and what would new work require?Shoreline work is often regulated by local, state and federal agencies.
4. How much does the water level change by season, by tide or by reservoir management?Depth at a dock in one season can differ a lot in another.
5. What does flood insurance cost for this property, and what does the current flood map show?Get a quote from an insurer or agent. A flood zone is not a premium, and no zone does not mean no risk.
6. What maintenance does the shoreline need (seawall, bulkhead, riprap, erosion), and what has been done recently?Shoreline structures are expensive to repair; ask for records and inspection reports.
7. How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
8. How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
9. What local rules apply: rentals, docks, boat lifts, fences, tree removal, setbacks?Rules come from the town, county, state, lake authority or association and vary widely.
