Country Home with Acreage and Stunning Views Close to Town

Located in western Pottawatomie County just 15 minutes north of Manhattan, this country home on 21 acres provides an outstanding opportunity for amazing views and quiet living with a short commute into Manhattan. Sitting above the intersection of Booth Creek Road and blacktop Carnahan Creek Road, the home is a 1994 built 2 bed, 2 bath manufactured ranch style sitting on a foundation and crawl space with an additional non-conforming bedroom used as an office. There are roughly 1,500 square feet of living space, with an enclosed breezeway and attached 2 car garage. The home is on rural water, a lagoon, utilizes propane for heat and the Generac backup generator, and electricity for the appliances and AC. New HVAC was installed in 2020, along with a metal roof following storm damage in the last 10 years. The stunning views off of the front deck of the home face south toward the confluence of Booth Creek and Carnahan Creek showing the diversity of the flint hills with the rolling landscape of native grass hillsides into the oak and cottonwood lined creek bottoms. When Tuttle Creek is full you can see the lake as well. The home is perched up on the side of a hill allowing for expansive views but protected from north winds. A handful of outbuildings consist of a 30’x50’ gravel floor metal building with electricity, a mower shed with electricity, a storm shelter building with additional storage with electricity, and a few older sheds being used for storage. The land consists of native grass that is currently in hay production, with a handful of scattered trees and ~80’ of elevation change. As if the views from the deck weren’t enough, the highest point of the property showcases even more expansive 360 degree panorama. At just 15 minutes North of Manhattan, the location of this tract is second to none with an incredibly picturesque drive along Carnahan Creek Road. The home lies within the Blue Valley School District. With ample space for an orchard, vineyard, gardens, and livestock this acreage is primed with infrastructure for a hobby farm. Don’t miss out on this opportunity for peace, quiet, room to roam, and a pinnacle of Flint Hills views. The farm is 15 minutes from Manhattan, 15 minutes from Westmoreland, 8 minutes from Olsburg, and 20 minutes from Westmoreland.
