"THE OPPORTUNITY"The opportunity to own a true creek bottom 40/acre homestead close to Wichita has always been limited, and over the last few years, it has only become more difficult. This property is simply one of the finest small acreage properties that have become available. The amenities and home have completed the dream to what is now a highly desirable and rare country estate setting."THE LOCATION"Located just west of Douglass and ONLY 30 MINUTES southeast of downtown Wichita!"THE FARM"Sitting all along the picturesque 8-mile creek, this 40 acres is stunning. Large timber lines the creek bottom area that meanders throughout the western and southern portions of the acreage. The timber is extremely large and carries an outstanding variety of big hardwoods, including numerous huge Walnuts, Sycamore, an array of Oaks, and many more. The owners have spent numerous hours clearing and maintaining a convenient 1¼ -mile trail/pathway all around the timbered areas allowing for full use of the farm. The trail gives easy access to the creek and farm, allowing for great fishing opportunities for bass, big catfish, crappie, bream, and canoeing if so desired. There are high-quality tillable fields in wheat, corn, or soybean rotations that amount to over 23 acres of either income-producing income, food plots for wildlife, or whatever your heart desires. The hunting is outstanding and has fulfilled many tags for the owners and their friends and families. It is nothing to wake up and see turkeys standing in the yard, numerous deer in the field, and maybe a bobcat or a coyote slinking along the timber edge. For the hobby farmer or the outdoor and recreational-minded family, this property will undoubtedly fill all your needs for a small acreage."THE HOME"Built in 2018 by Benchmark Homes, this custom home has all the fine amenities and details that you look for in a country estate-type setting. Very fine wood trim and vaulted beamed main living area are just for starters. There are spacious bedrooms, including 2 guest bedrooms, a large bunk room for kids, and of course, a master suite with a master bath and closet. The master bath is highlighted by a very large walk-in tile shower with a viewing window where you can literally watch deer standing in the yard and field. The walk-in closet is very roomy and leads right into the laundry room area for ultra convenience. The entire house is outfitted with Quaker Low E windows and doors and easy to manage and sleek Graber blinds. The kitchen area is detailed with all Whirlpool appliances, including a double oven, granite tops, and dual sinks. Working your way down to the lower level, you find a full bar with alder cabinets, granite tops, an additional gas fireplace showcased by a real cedar custom mantle, and a sassy 8' Sterling pool table. There are numerous more features that make this home a cozy country place for fun, family, and entertainment."THE EXTRAS"No country estate is complete without a vineyard and, of course, a shop for all the toy storage and storytelling. This shop is no different, and with plenty of space in the 40'X30' frame, you would currently find several UTVs, lots of tools, a high-efficiency corn furnace, a bathroom, concrete floors, and lots of old signs that would be included to add to the storytelling. The shop has fully insulated walls and also has a corn furnace in addition to a 2.5/ton Mitsubishi mini-split heating and ac system, which makes for comfortable occasions at any temperature. The vineyard is fully viewable from the entire rear area of the home and creates outstanding scenery. The vineyard is watered automatically along with the full yard area irrigation system. There are a variety of white and red grapes, including several types of concords, amongst others. All the grapes are great for wine, jam, or just eating if that's what you prefer. If you decide it is not a great day to hunt, then you just grab the guns and try your skill on your personal rifle range with 4 targets set up from 100 to 466 yards from the solid shooting bench. Beyond all the fun, if you require a relaxing walk, you just stroll along the trails that follow the creek in a true park-like setting. The private trails are not the only thing that provides seclusion, this property, which sits just a hundred yards off of a blacktop highway, maintains a very secluded private gravel drive that has been gated. The gate is currently solar-operated, with 3 remotes available for easy operation and additional privacy. And all this is just ¼ of a mile off the blacktop and 30 minutes from downtown Wichita!"THE START"Your country estate that has everything you're looking for simply awaits you.
