Our company is honored to have been chosen as the exclusive agent for the offering of this idyllic treasure located in central Woodson County, Kansas just outside Yates Center. This property has been in the hands of the same family for in excess of 110 years and has received excellent care but the time has come for its next chapter. Situated on 140 +/- acres, this is a rare blend of real estate that will appeal to a diverse audience. This gorgeous gem possesses inherent qualities that aren't easily replicated and would cost a small fortune in an attempt to do so. From the beautiful and stately hilltop residence to the meandering creek bisecting the property to high-quality cropland to scenic vistas in the pasture portion, there are few rivals featuring the attributes this property boasts. This beautiful historic farm offers a rural lifestyle and ambience, yet is just two miles from the county seat along a quiet country road. This town of Yates Center offers most anything you would need, with very little traffic and oftentimes without having to wait in line.-----The residence, built in 1910, encompasses 2,272 total square feet of living area per County records. Contrary to County records, there are currently 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom on each floor. Features of the home include spacious bedrooms, fine original woodwork, an updated kitchen, wood stove, fireplace with insert, low-entry shower, Generac whole-house generator and abundant windows providing natural light as well as the ability to enjoy the views of the property! Another very unique amenity is the naturally sourced water supply that's sourced from an artesian spring of which its crystal clear waters surface just northwest of the residence and are contained within the natural limestone basin of the "Spring House". Please be sure to see the video of this awesome feature! For those more accustomed to a public water supply, there is a rural water line near the driveway to the home that serves the neighbor's water needs. For information regarding rural water availability and costs, please contact Woodson County Rural Water District #1.-----Moving outside, you'll continue to be impressed with the immediate area surrounding the home, especially the multiple quality outbuildings, from a modern metal ship building to multiple beautiful native limestone structures. The large Morton Building located just west of the residence measures 90' X 42' and is one to envy! Features include all concrete floors, 4 garage doors on the east side, large sliding bay doors on the south end and a sectioned off north end that's insulated and includes natural gas heat, 1/2 bath and is set up nicely for mechanical maintenance of vehicles and equipment. Adjacent to this building, you'll find the original garage which is constructed mostly of native limestone that can be used for its intended purpose or used as workshop with additional storage. Two of my favorite buildings on the property are located just to the north which are the "Spring House" and another similar native limestone building that both take you back to a time of quality craftsmanship, beauty and functionality of which are readily evident in the pictures. Finally, saving the best for last, the caboose! Well known amongst the locals, at the south end of the lawn near where the pasture begins, sits a vintage Union Pacific caboose on railroad tracks. The caboose is in amazing condition inside and out for its age and has been well cared for with exterior paint and updated decals in recent years. It's a real treasure from the past that continues to add to the uniqueness of this offering.-----The south and west portions of the property are comprised of a good mix of native and tame grass pasture as well as some hayable areas.
