The area along “Old 8” between Lindsborg & McPherson has seen explosive growth in land values and development. The reason? It is a nice place to live, hunt, and play. Lindsborg has art, music, culture, and small-town chic. McPherson has industry, a growing economy, and a business-friendly environment. Marry these two factors together, and you get a neighborhood where the future is bright. Custom home construction is on the rise, and people are staking their claims to a piece of the remaining puzzle. The property has an electric line running over the center of the south hayfield, so getting a meter drop to start your construction would be a breeze. Rural Water is run all the way up 13th Avenue for connection to your dream residence. Adjacent to the farm is the Meadowlark Trail. This recreational crushed limestone trail connects Lindsborg to McPherson. Take the family on a bike ride for ice cream to downtown Lindsborg, less than 4 miles away. There are hay/pasture acres that have been mowed and kept clean, ready for your horses and livestock. Live the country lifestyle with kids 4H projects, or fatten steers for your immediate family. Getting to the land is easy, paved Shawnee Road is well maintained and connects you to 13th Avenue which dead ends at the property. If wildlife, quiet privacy, and buildability are your priorities, then this checks all the boxes.
The whitetail deer hunting on this farm is spectacular. The shape allows for multiple hunting setups. There is a mixture of habitat, from open tallgrass prairie, bottomland tillable, and burr oak flats. The specimen trees on this farm are incredible. Lots of advertising out there claims “timber”, but on this tract there are actually stands of mature timber. 100-year-old cottonwoods and oaks can’t be bought or grown in your lifetime. You cannot buy time, but you can buy a farm that has been aged to perfection.
There are currently 14.5 acres planted to soybeans. These tillable acres are comprised of fertile bottom ground Class II type soils. Primarily level silt loam fields with an average soil productivity score significantly above county averages. These productive acres provide passive income and excellent wildlife habitat. Open to discussion about more or less than 65 acres. Showings will be by appointment only, don’t miss this opportunity.
