LAND: This is a beautiful 51.3 Acre tract in the Flint Hills of Morris Co. This
is a first for us in selling! In 35 years I have not sold this size tract that has
approximately 1 mile road frontage with a mile of Spring Creek on the property
and also has Six Mile creek on one end of the property. The high bluff on the
southeast plummets to Spring creek in the valley with timber...
southeast plummets to Spring creek in the valley with timbered slopes to steep
for most of us to climb. As I walked the bluff a buck deer jumped from the thicket.
As you will see from the photos this is a great wildlife area! There is approximately 10 acres of cultivated bottom ground on the east and
approximately 10 acres of brome grass on the southwest and the balance is in native grass, creek, timber and building site. Spring Creek is
just as its name implies, The creek is spring fed and this is where Leon gets his water supply. His water pump is at the spring site on the
property.
IMPROVEMENTS: The property has a 120'x40' Morton Building with a 40'x60'
insulated shop area with hot water heat in the cement floor. On each end is a covered
area for parking or storage and on the west is a finished office with wood finished walls
and a bath w/ shower area and closet. The Morton building is wood frame with a metal
exterior. The hot water heat is provided by a Woodmaster 5500 outdoor wood furnace.
Leon used the building for his Custom Hardwood business so it is lighted and has
electricity throughout.
The other building is an approximately 24'x36' Morton barn originally for horses but it
has 1/2 cement floor and has been used for storage. The buildings were built in 2005
and are in good condition.
AUCTIONEER'S NOTE: It only takes minutes to fall in love with this property. The
high bluff, sparkling spring water, wildlife habitat all set in the middle of miles of Flint
Hills in all directions. The improvements are such that they could be built into a combination
home, cabin or weekend paradise. Or keep the shop and horse barn as they are and build a
home across Spring Creek. What a location!
This is a one of a kind property. Local historians have said that this spring was a major water
