Introducing The Oak Meadow Oasis, a unique chance to own 160 acres located just South of Lawrence, Kansas. With its six ponds, hardwood-lined meadows, and top-tier fencing, this property offers a host of exceptional features that set it apart.
Land
This 160-acre parcel of land features a variety of foliage including oak trees, cedar trees, cottonwoods, and several other hardwoods. With six ponds scattered throughout, along with warm and cool season grasses, the landscape offers a diverse habitat. A small spring/creek adds to the natural beauty splitting two pocket meadows.
Improvements
This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home spanning 2,811 square feet is situated on a generous plot with a yard and shade trees. This property offers ample space for outdoor enjoyment. Additionally, a 50′ x 70′ shop building provides extra storage or workspace. Perfect for those seeking comfort and practicality in a peaceful setting.
The fencing on this property is top-notch, constructed with durable pipe and high gauge wire, ensuring security and containment for the bison that have been residents here for many years. The acreage is thoughtfully divided into six pastures by several cross fences, facilitating easy rotational grazing and maximizing efficiency in land use. The perimeter high fence gives a new owner potential to open it up to allow outside wildlife in, or keep it high fenced and start an exotic operation of their own.
Recreation
The Oak Meadow Oasis offers great hunting potential, having been primarily used for bison grazing in the past without any hunting. As a result, it presents a blank slate for a new owner, with numerous opportunities waiting to be explored. Located in an area known for its sizable whitetail deer and abundant bobwhite quail, the property also supports waterfowl and turkey hunting. Furthermore, the proximity to a Controlled Shooting Area nearby ensures occasional sightings of stray pheasants in the grassy meadows.
