Bring your dream home, hobby farm, or weekend retreat to life on this gently rolling ±25-acre tract just 45 minutes south of Kansas City and 20 minutes from Clinton in NE Bates County. There are multiple build sites to choose from, secluded in the back of the property or the existing homestead right off the black top road. The century-old homestead adds character and options—restore the 100 year-old stone farmhouse or clear the footprint for a showcase new build with established utilities (rural water & electric available). The property is livestock-ready with a lush grass pasture, fencing with two watering ponds, plenty of trees for shade and a sturdy loading corral already in place. The two wooded draws offer you the chance to hunt deer on your own land or walk across the street to Settle's Ford Conservation Area with 7,400 acres of fishing, hunting, hiking and outdoor recreation. Whether you envision your perfect weekend retreat or simply a peaceful country homestead within commuting distance of the city, this property delivers an unbeatable combination of location, usable acreage, and natural beauty.
