Douglas County - 2343 North 600 Road, Edgerton, KS
Terra Bella Estate is a Mediterranean inspired private retreat set behind a gated entrance on approximately 26 acres of rolling Kansas countryside. Over 6,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space showcases stone facades, arched openings, rich wood trim, and old world details that give the residence a timeless Tuscan feel. Ideally positioned just a half mile from the Johnson County line within Douglas County—and tucked between Eudora, Gardner, and Baldwin City—this estate offers quick, convenient access to Lawrence, Olathe, Overland Park, and the greater Kansas City metro. A gently winding drive meanders through clusters of mature trees and opens to the home, where each of the five bedrooms enjoys its own en suite bathroom and three generous living areas—one on every level—create distinct spaces for formal entertaining, casual gatherings, and game day relaxation. The main level living and dining rooms flow into a warm hearth room off the gourmet kitchen, framed by stone accents, custom cabinetry, and upscale appliances with views over the pool and pond. Outdoor living is at the heart of Terra Bella: expansive balconies, a wraparound covered veranda, and multiple terraces overlook the resort style pool, spa, and landscaped courtyard, all set against heavily wooded surroundings. The finished four car garage, with durable epoxy flooring, easily doubles as a clean, efficient workout and training space. Beyond the home, a spring fed pond with its own island, manicured gardens, and open meadows invite evening walks, wildlife watching, and unforgettable sunset gatherings.

Douglas County - 623 North 900 Road, Lawrence, KS
Set within a secluded landscape just two miles south of Clinton Lake, this remarkable 88 +/- acre property offers an uncommon combination of historic character, productive grassland, exceptional recreation, and lasting family heritage. Conveniently located approximately 15 miles from Lawrence, 26 miles from Topeka, and 55 miles from Kansas City, the property feels wonderfully private while remaining within easy reach of major communities and amenities. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, private recreational retreat, hunting property, or legacy estate, this tract provides the land, water, improvements, and location to serve generations to come.
The centerpiece of the property is an impressive original two-and-a-half-story residence constructed in 1907. Inherited and held by the same family for many years, the home reflects the quality and craftsmanship of a bygone era. Offering approximately 2,009 square feet of finished living space, the residence includes four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Beautifully maintained original hardwood floors extend throughout much of the home, while detailed wood trim, door and window casings, and other handcrafted features preserve its authentic character. Thoughtful remodeling completed throughout the years has allowed the home to evolve while retaining the timeless details that make it truly one of a kind.
The property encompasses approximately 72 acres of grassland, including roughly 36 acres that are hayed annually. These open acres provide agricultural productivity, scenic views, and several attractive locations for future improvements or additional homesites. Whether overlooking the lake, positioned near the mature timber, or tucked into a more secluded portion of the property, the multiple potential build sites offer an opportunity to create a custom home or family compound while preserving the original residence as a guesthouse or retreat.
Approximately 13 acres of mature hardwood timber add tremendous beauty and wildlife habitat. The diverse timber stand includes bur oak, white oak, cottonwood, elm, ash, hackberry, and cedar. Combined with the rolling grassland, secluded setting, dependable water, and nearby agricultural resources, the property offers outstanding habitat for whitetail deer, wild turkey, and a variety of other native wildlife. Hunters will appreciate the established interior deer stand built directly into the machine shed that the owner used even into her golden years, which allowed her the opportunity to get out still and enjoy a sit and provided a unique and comfortable vantage point during the season.
At the heart of the property lies an approximately 3-acre, spring-fed lake stocked with bass, channel catfish, and bluegill. The lake provides year-round recreational enjoyment, from quiet mornings spent fishing to evenings overlooking the water. Its size and dependable spring-fed water source also create exceptional opportunities for waterfowl hunting. With Clinton Lake located only two miles to the north, the surrounding area serves as a natural destination and travel corridor for ducks and geese, further enhancing the property's sporting appeal.
A strong collection of outbuildings provides ample space for vehicles, equipment, storage, hobbies, and land management. The 36'x24' two-car garage features concrete floors, electricity, stubbed plumbing, storage, and workshop space. A substantial 32'x80' machine shed offers additional equipment storage and workshop capabilities, along with the built-in interior deer stand. The improvements are completed by a 14'x40' lean-to and an 8'x12' garden shed.
Utilities include FreeState Electric Cooperative service, central propane, and Douglas County Rural Water District No. 5. All mineral rights are intact and transfer with the property. Approximate 2025 property taxes were $5,356.
Properties offering this balance of history, recreation, productivity, and accessibility are increasingly difficult to find. From the irreplaceable craftsmanship of the original 1907 home to the spring-fed fishing lake, mature timber, abundant wildlife, productive hay ground, and multiple future build sites, every element contributes to the property's versatility. It is equally suited to becoming a peaceful forever home, a private family retreat, or a treasured legacy property where new generations can continue the story that began more than a century ago.

Douglas County - 193 North 600 Road, Overbrook, KS
Douglas 80 is a rare opportunity to own an exceptionally diverse and historically significant 80 +/- acre property in the rolling hills of Douglas County, Kansas. Combining productive agricultural land, premier hunting habitat, sustainable living features, and a beautifully restored historic homestead, this property offers a lifestyle and investment opportunity seldom found in today's market. Conveniently located just 8 miles from Overbrook, 22 miles from downtown Lawrence, 28 miles from Topeka, and only 62 miles from Kansas City, this property provides peaceful country living without sacrificing accessibility.
The farm consists of approximately 45 +/- acres of native grassland, 33 +/- acres of mature hardwood timber, and a 2 +/- acre homesite. The diverse landscape supports an average of 65 head of grazing cattle annually while also creating exceptional habitat for wildlife. Rock Creek wraps around the property, complemented by several natural springs that provide year-round water sources and enhance the property's natural beauty. Dramatic elevation changes create breathtaking 360-degree views across the surrounding countryside, making every corner of the farm visually impressive. The property is fenced with 5-strand barbed wire with internal cross-fencing.
At the center of the property sits a beautifully restored farmhouse originally constructed in 1889. Rich in history, the homestead was first established by a Civil War soldier who was gifted the land by the United States government. Both the residence and the original barn may qualify for historic registry designation, preserving a unique piece of Kansas heritage. In 2018, the home underwent a complete renovation down to the studs, including all new electrical, plumbing, insulation, HVAC systems, and sheetrock while carefully preserving the craftsmanship and character of the original structure.
The residence offers approximately 2,356 square feet of finished living space with five bedrooms and two full bathrooms. A main-floor master bedroom and laundry room provide convenience, while the spacious custom kitchen features extensive cabinetry and ample workspace. Throughout the home, original refinished hardwood floors, restored woodwork, and beautiful stained-glass windows and doors showcase the property's historic charm. The upstairs bathroom features an insulated cast-iron soaking tub, and the laid-rock basement includes a sump pump installed in 2019. Covered front and rear porches provide ideal spaces to relax and enjoy the surrounding views. The home's roof was replaced with a Poly-Flex roofing system in the fall of 2025 and carries a 20-year warranty.
One of the property's most attractive features is its capability for sustainable and off-grid living. The residence operates primarily through a solar energy system connected to a two-way electric meter. Excess energy produced by the solar panels is returned to the electrical grid through FreeState Electric Cooperative, while supplemental power remains available as needed. Water is supplied through a 3,000-gallon cistern and a 2,500-gallon storage tank. Rural water service is also available for future connection from the eastern waterline. An Outdoor Classic Edge 760 wood furnace provides supplemental heat to the residence and serves as the primary heating source for the shop.
The improvements continue with an impressive 30-foot by 40-foot insulated shop building designed for functionality and durability. Constructed with double sheet-metal walls and full foam insulation, the building features heated floors, 8-inch concrete on the garage side, and 4.5-inch concrete on the storage side. Two oversized insulated overhead doors measuring 12 feet by 16 feet provide easy access for equipment and vehicles. The shop is further enhanced with both 50-amp and 30-amp RV hookups and a hot tub area, making it equally suited for work, recreation, and entertaining.
Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the exceptional 36-foot by 60-foot stable facility. Designed to withstand winds up to 150 miles per hour, the building features five spacious 12-foot by 12-foot stalls with room to add three additional stalls. All stalls and flooring have the needed and adequate rubberized matting throughout. The thoughtfully designed tack room includes feed storage, a sink, tack area, and floor drains. Additional floor drains are located throughout the main aisle and individual stalls for efficient cleaning and maintenance. Custom spring-loaded feed storage bunks hold up to 600 pounds of feed, and an automatic waterer services the paddock area.
The property's original late-1800s barn stands as a remarkable example of historic craftsmanship. Measuring approximately 60 feet by 68 feet, the structure was constructed using traditional pin-and-peg techniques with wooden dowels. The barn retains its original horse stalls, hay chutes, and expansive second-story hay loft capable of storing more than 2,000 bales. The roof was recently resealed and re-screwed in the spring of 2026, ensuring continued preservation of this historic landmark. A nearby lean-to provides additional equipment and storage space.
For those interested in self-sufficiency and homesteading, the property includes a fenced garden area with raised planting beds and an established orchard producing asparagus, sandhill plums, and blackberries. These improvements complement the property's off-grid capabilities and agricultural productivity.
Recreational opportunities on Douglas 80 are truly exceptional. The combination of mature hardwood timber, native grassland, creek corridors, natural springs, and agricultural influence has created outstanding wildlife habitat. The property is well known for its trophy whitetail deer hunting, with several bucks exceeding 168 inches harvested over the years. Abundant populations of turkey, quail, and furbearers provide year-round hunting and trapping opportunities. Two Lazyman shooting houses are strategically positioned on the property, including one at the Back Rim and another at the Hilltop, offering excellent vantage points for wildlife observation and hunting. With Rock Creek flowing throughout, the elevation, bedding sanctuary, massive hardwood timber stand, the foundation and diversity is the perfect habitat. The timber stand is made up of Burr Oak, White Oak, Cottonwood, Sycamore, Elm, Osage Orange, Cedar, and Ash. Along Rock Creek, there are several creek crossing locations along with deep pools throughout. A family favorite hangout spot known as "The Lobster Bar" not only holds always-flowing, crystal-clear water, but a massive granite ledge with beautiful waterfalls below.
Access to the property is excellent year-round via well-maintained county roads. Nearby 600 Road serves as a designated snow route and receives priority winter maintenance, while Douglas County regularly treats local roads to reduce dust and improve driving conditions. Adding further value, all owned mineral rights remain intact and will transfer to the new owner.
With its rich history, meticulously restored improvements, sustainable living infrastructure, productive grazing land, exceptional hunting opportunities, and stunning natural beauty, Douglas 80 represents one of the most unique and complete rural properties available in eastern Kansas. Whether envisioned as a legacy family estate, working livestock operation, equestrian facility, hunting retreat, or self-sufficient homestead, this remarkable property offers an unparalleled opportunity to own a truly special piece of Kansas history.

Nestled along the banks of Rock Creek just South of Clinton Lake in Western Douglas County, Kansas lies one of the most complete combination farms I've been involved with. All of the ingredients necessary to grow, hold, and harvest mature animals, are here. From the rolling topography and timber to the brushy thickets and crop fields, this farm is very impressive to even the most discerning outdoorsman. Neighboring farms in the immediate area are known to have little to no hunting pressure which would explain the long track record of this farm putting out top-end whitetails. Approximately 33 acres of crop ground provides a great food source while the creek acts as the main source of water. Brushy cedar thickets and big creek bottom timber provide a diverse arrangement of bedding and thermal cover throughout the entire year. Getting around the property and accessing stand locations is made easy by a well-established trail system throughout the farm. Access to the farm is provided by way of county gravel road on the East side of the farm. Electricity is at the road, and water is onsite for anyone looking to build a home or hunting lodge.

River Ridge Estate is a 132 +/- acre property offering the perfect blend of luxury living, and outdoor recreation. The ranch features a high-end home with a large shop, improved grass, rolling terrain with timbered draws, and a newly rebuilt pond that attracts abundant wildlife. Private, scenic, and thoughtfully maintained, this estate delivers exceptional views, strong agricultural use, and year-round recreational enjoyment.
Land
The land consists of 132 +/- acres offering a strong mix of open grass and natural features. The pasture is well-suited for hay production or grazing, complemented by rolling terrain and timbered draws that add both beauty and function. A newly rebuilt pond enhances the landscape and supports wildlife, with newly planted weeping willows along the water's edge. The home is set back from the road, creating privacy while still capturing wide, scenic views in every direction. Over the past five years, the owner has invested significant time and care into clearing trees, improving the grass, and planting more than 20 landscape trees--including oak, maple, river birch, and redbuds--resulting in a property that is both visually impressive and thoughtfully maintained.
Improvements
The improvements on this property include a well-designed 2,772 sq ft home featuring 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, finished in a rustic yet modern style that feels both warm and refined. The home offers 10-foot ceilings, 8-foot doors, rounded corners, and a spacious layout with quality finishes throughout. The primary bedroom includes two walk-in closets, and the home is plumbed for gas at both the stove and fireplace. An on-demand water heater adds efficiency, while a mini-split system serves the loft bedroom for added comfort. The attached 4-car garage provides ample space for vehicles and storage, and underground electric enhances the clean, finished look of the property.
A large 4060 shop with 10-foot lean-tos on both sides is fully concreted and well-suited for equipment, hobbies, or additional storage. Two RV hookups--one at the home and one at the shop--offer both 30- and 50-amp service, adding convenience for guests or travel use. Barbed wire fencing is in place across the property, supporting both agricultural and recreational needs. Altogether, the home, shop, and infrastructure create a highly functional and thoughtfully built setup ideal for comfortable country living.
Note: There is equipment on this property that can be purchased separately if needed.
Recreation
This property also offers excellent recreational appeal for the outdoor enthusiast. Multiple timbered draws provide natural cover and travel corridors that consistently hold whitetail deer and turkeys, making the land well-suited for hunting and wildlife viewing. The rolling terrain is ideal for ATV riding, with plenty of space to establish trails throughout the property. A rebuilt and expanded pond adds to the recreational value, serving as a water source that attracts geese and other wildlife throughout the year. Weeping willows were planted near the pond to give additional beauty and shade in the summer. Together, the timber, water, and terrain create a well-rounded setting for hunting, ATV use, recreation, and enjoying the outdoors.
Agriculture
This ranch offers practical and versatile farming opportunities for a variety of uses. Portions of the property are in grass and could be readily used for pasturing livestock, making it well-suited for a small cattle or hobby livestock operation. There is also a dedicated garden area with an attached chicken coop, ideal for homesteading, raising poultry, or growing fresh produce (which includes three producing apple trees). Whether for personal use or supplying a local farmers market, the setup allows a buyer to enjoy a sustainable lifestyle while still maintaining the property's larger agricultural and recreational appeal.

Prairie Crest Vista is an 11.5 acre tract located just south of Clinton Lake in Douglas County, Kansas. The property offers a combination of open tillable ground, a mature tree line along the eastern boundary, and gently rolling terrain that provides multiple options for building placement. It's positioned for those seeking rural acreage with proximity to Lawrence and Baldwin City, balancing privacy with access to nearby communities and amenities.
The land unfolds in a gentle east-to-west slope, with the eastern edge defined by a line of mature trees that provide natural screening and a sense of seclusion. The remainder of the property is largely open and tillable, allowing flexibility for a homesite, hobby farm, pasture, or continued agricultural use. The terrain is workable and well-drained, with enough topography to create visual interest without complicating construction or land management.
For buyers considering development, the property benefits from reasonable access and available infrastructure. A rural water meter may be available through the local water district, though prospective buyers should verify availability, tap fees, and service area boundaries independently. Electricity runs nearby, and the property is accessed via a maintained county gravel road that provides year-round access without heavy traffic. The terrain and soil conditions appear suitable for septic systems, though site-specific evaluation and permitting will be required.
The location offers practical convenience without sacrificing the feel of country living. Lawrence is approximately fifteen minutes to the north, providing access to shopping, dining, healthcare, and employment opportunities. Baldwin City is about twenty minutes to the east, offering a quieter, small-town atmosphere with local schools and community events. Ottawa is roughly thirty minutes south for additional retail and services. Clinton Lake itself is only a few minutes away, with public boat ramps, trails, campgrounds, and recreational areas that draw outdoor enthusiasts year-round.
Prairie Crest Vista is part of a small group of tracts that are subject to protective covenants designed to maintain property values and preserve the rural character of the area. These covenants are straightforward and focused on ensuring quality construction, reasonable setbacks, and land stewardship without imposing overly restrictive or suburban-style limitations. They allow for agricultural activities, livestock, and outbuildings while protecting against incompatible land uses. Prospective buyers should review the covenants in detail to ensure alignment with their intended use.
The property's size and layout make it versatile. At just over eleven acres, it's manageable for a single owner or family without requiring extensive upkeep, yet large enough to support meaningful outdoor living, small-scale farming, or equestrian use. There's room for a primary residence, outbuildings, gardens, pastures, or a combination of uses that suit a rural lifestyle. The tree line on the east side provides a natural backdrop and windbreak, while the open ground to the west offers views and flexibility in site orientation.
For buyers interested in acquiring additional acreage, Prairie Crest Vista is part of a larger offering that includes several adjoining tracts. An adjacent 20 acre parcel is also available for purchase and is listed separately under Lawrence MLS #164598, Heartland #2585187 and Sunflower MLS #242177. Additional neighboring tracts may be available as well, creating the possibility for buyers to assemble a larger contiguous holding if desired. This flexibility allows for expansion, future division, or estate planning that accommodates multi-generational ownership or phased development.
The market for rural acreage in Douglas County has remained steady, with small tracts near Clinton Lake in particular demand due to their combination of recreational access, commutability, and limited available inventory. Properties with road frontage, water access potential, and tillable ground tend to hold value well, especially when protective covenants ensure consistency in neighboring land use. Whether purchased for immediate construction, long-term investment, or agricultural use, Prairie Crest Vista offers a solid foundation in a desirable area.
Walking the property, the terrain reveals subtle variations in elevation that create natural building sites and sightlines. Some areas overlook the open fields to the west, while others are nestled closer to the tree line for added privacy. The land is not overgrown or heavily wooded beyond the eastern boundary, making it easy to assess and visualize potential layouts. Fence lines, driveways, and building pads can be sited with minimal clearing or grading.
The surrounding area retains its agricultural character, with a mix of working farms, rural residences, and recreational properties. The road traffic is light, and the sense of openness and quiet remains intact. This is functional countryside land that has been worked and cared for, not overly manicured or inaccessible. It's well-suited for buyers who appreciate productive ground and straightforward land management.
For families, the property offers space for children to explore safely, room for pets and livestock, and the kind of outdoor access that suburban lots rarely provide. For remote workers or retirees, it offers a setting that balances solitude with convenience close enough to town for errands and social connections, far enough out to enjoy privacy and reduced density. For hobbyists or part-time farmers, the tillable acreage and manageable size make it a practical choice that doesn't require full-time agricultural operations to justify ownership.
The investment case for Prairie Crest Vista is straightforward. Small-acreage tracts with accessible infrastructure near Clinton Lake and Lawrence are becoming harder to find as demand for rural residential properties increases. Development pressure continues to push outward from Lawrence, and properties with covenants, water access potential, and established road frontage are particularly valued. Whether held for appreciation, developed for personal use, or purchased as a future estate site, the tract positions well within the regional market.
Beyond the numbers, Prairie Crest Vista offers the kind of setting that appeals to those seeking a change of pace. The land is quiet, functional, and ready for someone's plans. It's not a showpiece or a heavily improved property it's raw acreage with good bones, positioned in a location that makes sense both practically and financially. The seasons move across the open ground with clarity spring growth, summer heat, autumn color, winter stillness and the land responds to care and attention in predictable, rewarding ways.
For those considering multiple tracts, the availability of a neighboring 20+/- acre parcel is available, offering the opportunity for additional acreage.
The distance to Clinton Lake adds recreational value that extends beyond the property itself. The lake's trail system, public lands, and boat access make it a year-round destination for fishing, hiking, biking, and wildlife observation. Having a rural homesite minutes from the lake means quick access to outdoor activities without the cost or commitment of lakefront property. It's a practical middle ground for those who value proximity to water and public recreation without waterfront maintenance or premium pricing.
Prairie Crest Vista also appeals to those transitioning from urban or suburban settings who want more space and autonomy without losing touch with the conveniences of town. The commute to Lawrence is short enough for daily work, errands, or social activities, yet the property itself offers a marked shift in atmosphere less noise, more sky, and the freedom to shape your surroundings without neighborhood restrictions or covenants that limit outdoor projects, animals, or agricultural pursuits.
The protective covenants in place here strike a reasonable balance. They're designed to prevent derelict structures, junk accumulation, or incompatible commercial uses, while allowing typical rural activities including livestock, gardens, outbuildings, and agricultural equipment. They're intended to maintain the area's appeal and protect long-term property values without creating the kind of restrictive environment common in suburban developments. Buyers should obtain and review the full text of the covenants during their due diligence to ensure compatibility with their plans.
From a land use perspective, Prairie Crest Vista is adaptable. The open ground can be hayed, pastured, or left fallow. The tree line can be enhanced with additional plantings or left as-is for natural wildlife habitat. Building sites can be oriented for passive solar gain, privacy, or view optimization depending on priorities. Access points and driveways can be configured to suit the layout, and the relatively level topography allows for a range of architectural styles and site designs.
The property is being offered as raw land with no existing structures, wells, or improvements. This provides a blank slate for buyers to develop according to their own vision and timeline, but it also means that all infrastructure water, septic, electric service, and access improvements will need to be installed and permitted by the buyer. Prospective purchasers should budget accordingly and conduct appropriate due diligence on utility availability, soil suitability, and local zoning and building requirements.
Prairie Crest Vista is not a flashy property, but it's a solid one. It offers the essentials that make rural land functional and livable good access, reasonable terrain, available utilities, protective covenants, and a location that balances isolation with convenience.

The topography features gentle rolling hills with elevation ranging from 1,062 feet at the northwest high point to approximately 981 feet along the eastern portion, offering expansive 360-degree views of the surrounding countryside.
The property is currently zoned agricultural with Douglas County, yet its location and infrastructure position it ideally for future development. Key utilities are readily available along the property boundaries, including fiber internet availability, natural gas service, three-phase electric power, and rural water throughout Douglas County Rural Water District #6, with both 4-inch to 6-inch water lines running along the road frontage and meters available. Electric service is divided between Evergy on the east side of the property and FreeState Electric Cooperative on the west side, providing flexible power options.
A geotechnical evaluation completed in 2018 further enhances the development readiness of the site. Additionally, the property has been surveyed and drafted into preliminary plat plans for the I-70 & K-10 Business Park by Landplan Engineering, offering a valuable starting point for commercial or industrial planning.
Large tracts with this level of highway exposure, accessibility, infrastructure, and proximity to Lawrence rarely become available. The combination of paved frontage on multiple sides, existing agricultural income, available utilities, and preliminary development planning creates a unique opportunity for developers seeking a strategic project location in a rapidly expanding regional market. All mineral rights are intact and will transfer with the property. Approximate 2025 property taxes: $549.55.
With its premier location along two of northeast Kansas' most important transportation corridors, this 155 +/- acre property represents a truly exceptional development and investment opportunity that must be experienced in person.
