Horizon Ridge Estates-Parcel 1
Horizon Ridge Estates Tract 1 3.01 Acres, Elevation, Trees, Views, Hard Surfaced Access
Horizon Ridge Estates Tract 1 offers 3.01 surveyed acres of attractive, buildable land in a quiet rural setting near Tecumseh, Kansas. Set just off US Highway 40 on hard surfaced roads, this tract combines an elevated position, mature trees, and open views over the surrounding countryside. The land sits higher than much of the nearby area, so when you step into the interior clearing you immediately notice the sense of openness and the long northern outlook across rolling fields and pasture. It is the kind of topography that gives smaller acreage a much larger feel.
The approach from Stanley Road is straightforward, with the tract rising gently away from the pavement. Near the center, a natural clearing creates an obvious focal point on the property. Around that open core, mature trees form a buffer...
The approach from Stanley Road is straightforward, with the tract rising gently away from the pavement. Near the center, a natural clearing creates an obvious focal point on the property. Around that open core, mature trees form a buffer that helps screen the interior from the road and neighboring tracts. This tree cover adds privacy, softens wind, and frames views outward so the setting feels quiet and somewhat tucked away, even though access is convenient and all on pavement.
Topography is one of the strongest features of Tract 1. The elevation change from road to homesite area is enough to provide a sense of separation and outlook without making the land difficult to use or maintain. The contours roll rather than drop sharply, which makes the ground feel natural, usable, and visually appealing. Standing near the top of the rise, the view sweeps across a mix of grassland and brome, with an open sky that captures sunrises, sunsets, and distant weather moving across the horizon.
Access and services are also key advantages. Tract 1 sits on a hard surfaced road network just off US Highway 40, offering quick connections into Topeka and straightforward routes toward Lawrence and I 70. The location is near Tecumseh for geographic reference, but this corridor functions more as a quiet rural edge to Topeka than a town center environment. Rural water meters are available, and other utilities are nearby, reducing the amount of off site work required compared to many raw tracts.
Horizon Ridge Estates is guided by simple protective covenants intended to preserve the overall character and quality of the neighborhood without creating unnecessary complexity. The focus is on maintaining an attractive, estate style environment with well kept properties, rather than dictating specific designs or over restricting normal country residential use. For buyers who care about topography, views, tree cover, paved access, and basic services already in place, Tract 1 stands out as a strong option in the TopekaLawrence market for smaller but high quality acreage.
