Douglas County - 6800 Lakeview Road, Lawrence, KS
Positioned in one of the most strategic growth corridors in northeast Kansas, this exceptional 155 +/- acre contiguous tract presents a rare large-scale development opportunity along the northwest edge of Lawrence. Ideally located at the intersection of major transportation routes, including Interstate 70 and Kansas Highway 10, the property sits just north of the Kansas Turnpike Exit 197 on/off ramps, providing outstanding visibility and accessibility.
The farm encompasses 155 +/- acres currently recorded with Douglas County in 16 deeded tracts, creating immediate flexibility for phased development or multiple project concepts. With paved frontage along N1800 Road (Farmers Turnpike) and E850 Road (K-10 Highway), the property benefits from direct highway exposure. Additional access from E 900th Road and N 1850 Road, both well-maintained gravel roads, borders the north and east sides of the property, offering exceptional accessibility from multiple directions in a high-traffic corridor.
Situated just 1.3 miles from the Lawrence city limits, the tract lies within a coveted target area for expansion and long-term regional growth. With opportunities for commercial, industrial, residential, or mixed-use development, this property provides a blank canvas for visionary developers and investors.
The land is currently utilized for agricultural production and pasture, providing income potential while future development plans are finalized. The 155 +/- acres currently sit in sixteen individual deeded tracts with Douglas County.
Approximately 71 +/- acres of fertile tillable ground, currently planted to corn, stretch from the western boundary through the northeast portion of the property. Soil types, including Martin, Woodson, Vinland, and Sogn, form the agricultural base and are classified as Class II, III, and VI soils.
The southeast to northeast portions of the property contain 50 +/- acres of native pasture, currently leased for cattle grazing for the 2026 season. An interior cross fence separates the pasture from the cropland and includes multiple gated access points.
Supporting the farm's layout are 30 +/- acres of native grass waterways that wind throughout the property, protecting the tillable ground while also being harvested annually for hay production. In addition, 4 +/- acres of timber provide natural cover and scenic character.
Five ponds are located throughout the tract, including a large pond in the southwest corner and another large pond along the northern boundary, with three additional ponds distributed across the property.
The topography features gentle rolling hills with elevation ranging from 1,062 feet at the northwest high point to approximately 981 feet along the eastern portion, offering expansive 360-degree views of the surrounding countryside.
The property is currently zoned agricultural with Douglas County, yet its location and infrastructure position it ideally for future development. Key utilities are readily available along the property boundaries, including fiber internet availability, natural gas service, three-phase electric power, and rural water throughout Douglas County Rural Water District #6, with both 4-inch to 6-inch water lines running along the road frontage and meters available. Electric service is divided between Evergy on the east side of the property and FreeState Electric Cooperative on the west side, providing flexible power options.
A geotechnical evaluation completed in 2018 further enhances the development readiness of the site. Additionally, the property has been surveyed and drafted into preliminary plat plans for the I-70 & K-10 Business Park by Landplan Engineering, offering a valuable starting point for commercial or industrial planning.
Large tracts with this level of highway exposure, accessibility, infrastructure, and proximity to Lawrence rarely become available. The combination of paved frontage on multiple sides, existing agricultural income, available utilities, and preliminary development planning creates a unique opportunity for developers seeking a strategic project location in a rapidly expanding regional market. All mineral rights are intact and will transfer with the property. Approximate 2025 property taxes: $549.55.
With its premier location along two of northeast Kansas' most important transportation corridors, this 155 +/- acre property represents a truly exceptional development and investment opportunity that must be experienced in person.

Stone Ridge Estate Tract 8 offers a rare opportunity to own 20 acres of gently rolling pastureland in one of the most scenic pockets of rural Douglas County. This tract combines open, usable acreage with just the right amount of character soft elevation changes, scattered trees, and a pond that adds both function and natural appeal. Whether your vision includes a private homesite, small livestock operation, or a peaceful weekend retreat, Tract 8 offers a flexible layout that supports a wide range of possibilities.
As you enter the property, the rolling terrain immediately sets the tone. The land isn't flat or monotonous; instead, it rises and falls in a subtle way that creates visual interest and a sense of privacy without sacrificing usability. These terrain features allow future owners the freedom to choose from multiple potential building locations, each with its own vantage point overlooking the surrounding countryside. Sunrises and sunsets both stretch across the open sky here, and the lightly wooded pockets help break up the landscape just enough to offer shade, wind protection, and habitat for wildlife.
A pond sits within the interior of the tract, serving as a natural focal point and an essential water source for livestock or recreational purposes. The existing barbed-wire fencing along portions of the boundary provides a head start for those who want to graze animals or secure the perimeter of their property. The flexibility of this tract allows future owners to customize it to their preferences, whether that means expanding pasture, adding trees along fence lines, or incorporating garden areas or small outbuildings.
Water service for a home would require drilling a private well, which is typical for the area and common among neighboring properties. The topography provides natural drainage, and a well-placed homesite would sit comfortably above the pond and low areas. Power is accessible at the road, and the rural setting ensures quiet, privacy, and wide-open skies while still maintaining reasonable access to nearby towns and amenities.
Recreation is a defining feature of this location. Less than a mile to the east lies the expansive Corps of Engineers ground surrounding Clinton Lake. This public land offers thousands of acres for hiking, hunting, wildlife viewing, and general outdoor enjoyment. The proximity to Corps land enhances the value of Tract 8not only because of the views and privacy it provides, but also because it places outdoor opportunities just moments away from your gate. For those who want to live close to nature, while still maintaining control and privacy on their own land, this is an ideal combination.
Tract 8 sits directly west of the Stone Ridge Ranch farmstead, a 20-acre parcel with a residence and outbuildings that anchors the center of the Stone Ridge offering (MLS #2583985) It is also offered alongside Tract 10 to the east, a 35 acre parcel of native grassland (MLS #2584067). Buyers seeking the ability to expand or assemble a larger holding should reference the adjacent listings. Together, these tracts provide options for buyers wanting to build near family, establish a multi-generational setup, or secure additional acreage for privacy, recreation, or long-term investment.
The seller is offering all three tracts individually, but with a specific structure designed to benefit future owners of the farmstead. This thoughtful approach allows the core property featuring the home and outbuildings to retain its flexibility and gives its future owners meaningful control over the surrounding land.
Whether you're looking to build immediately or to hold land for future use, Stone Ridge Estate Tract 8 presents a compelling balance of scenery, usability, and long-term potential. The land is open enough to visualize clearly, yet dynamic enough to feel unique. The proximity to Clinton Lake and Corps ground further elevates its recreational appeal, and the option to expand with adjoining acreage makes this tract especially versatile.
This is a standout opportunity in an area where land does not come available often and almost never in multiple adjoining pieces. For buyers seeking 20 acres with character, privacy, and proximity to some of the best outdoor recreation in the region, Stone Ridge Estate Tract 8 deserves serious consideration.

Douglas County - 645 North 900 Road, Lawrence, KS
Prairie Crest Vista is an 11.5 acre tract located just south of Clinton Lake in Douglas County, Kansas. The property offers a combination of open tillable ground, a mature tree line along the eastern boundary, and gently rolling terrain that provides multiple options for building placement. It's positioned for those seeking rural acreage with proximity to Lawrence and Baldwin City, balancing privacy with access to nearby communities and amenities.
The land unfolds in a gentle east-to-west slope, with the eastern edge defined by a line of mature trees that provide natural screening and a sense of seclusion. The remainder of the property is largely open and tillable, allowing flexibility for a homesite, hobby farm, pasture, or continued agricultural use. The terrain is workable and well-drained, with enough topography to create visual interest without complicating construction or land management.
For buyers considering development, the property benefits from reasonable access and available infrastructure. A rural water meter may be available through the local water district, though prospective buyers should verify availability, tap fees, and service area boundaries independently. Electricity runs nearby, and the property is accessed via a maintained county gravel road that provides year-round access without heavy traffic. The terrain and soil conditions appear suitable for septic systems, though site-specific evaluation and permitting will be required.
The location offers practical convenience without sacrificing the feel of country living. Lawrence is approximately fifteen minutes to the north, providing access to shopping, dining, healthcare, and employment opportunities. Baldwin City is about twenty minutes to the east, offering a quieter, small-town atmosphere with local schools and community events. Ottawa is roughly thirty minutes south for additional retail and services. Clinton Lake itself is only a few minutes away, with public boat ramps, trails, campgrounds, and recreational areas that draw outdoor enthusiasts year-round.
Prairie Crest Vista is part of a small group of tracts that are subject to protective covenants designed to maintain property values and preserve the rural character of the area. These covenants are straightforward and focused on ensuring quality construction, reasonable setbacks, and land stewardship without imposing overly restrictive or suburban-style limitations. They allow for agricultural activities, livestock, and outbuildings while protecting against incompatible land uses. Prospective buyers should review the covenants in detail to ensure alignment with their intended use.
The property's size and layout make it versatile. At just over eleven acres, it's manageable for a single owner or family without requiring extensive upkeep, yet large enough to support meaningful outdoor living, small-scale farming, or equestrian use. There's room for a primary residence, outbuildings, gardens, pastures, or a combination of uses that suit a rural lifestyle. The tree line on the east side provides a natural backdrop and windbreak, while the open ground to the west offers views and flexibility in site orientation.
For buyers interested in acquiring additional acreage, Prairie Crest Vista is part of a larger offering that includes several adjoining tracts. An adjacent 20 acre parcel is also available for purchase and is listed separately under Lawrence MLS #164598, Heartland #2585187 and Sunflower MLS #242177. Additional neighboring tracts may be available as well, creating the possibility for buyers to assemble a larger contiguous holding if desired. This flexibility allows for expansion, future division, or estate planning that accommodates multi-generational ownership or phased development.
The market for rural acreage in Douglas County has remained steady, with small tracts near Clinton Lake in particular demand due to their combination of recreational access, commutability, and limited available inventory. Properties with road frontage, water access potential, and tillable ground tend to hold value well, especially when protective covenants ensure consistency in neighboring land use. Whether purchased for immediate construction, long-term investment, or agricultural use, Prairie Crest Vista offers a solid foundation in a desirable area.
Walking the property, the terrain reveals subtle variations in elevation that create natural building sites and sightlines. Some areas overlook the open fields to the west, while others are nestled closer to the tree line for added privacy. The land is not overgrown or heavily wooded beyond the eastern boundary, making it easy to assess and visualize potential layouts. Fence lines, driveways, and building pads can be sited with minimal clearing or grading.
The surrounding area retains its agricultural character, with a mix of working farms, rural residences, and recreational properties. The road traffic is light, and the sense of openness and quiet remains intact. This is functional countryside land that has been worked and cared for, not overly manicured or inaccessible. It's well-suited for buyers who appreciate productive ground and straightforward land management.
For families, the property offers space for children to explore safely, room for pets and livestock, and the kind of outdoor access that suburban lots rarely provide. For remote workers or retirees, it offers a setting that balances solitude with convenience close enough to town for errands and social connections, far enough out to enjoy privacy and reduced density. For hobbyists or part-time farmers, the tillable acreage and manageable size make it a practical choice that doesn't require full-time agricultural operations to justify ownership.
The investment case for Prairie Crest Vista is straightforward. Small-acreage tracts with accessible infrastructure near Clinton Lake and Lawrence are becoming harder to find as demand for rural residential properties increases. Development pressure continues to push outward from Lawrence, and properties with covenants, water access potential, and established road frontage are particularly valued. Whether held for appreciation, developed for personal use, or purchased as a future estate site, the tract positions well within the regional market.
Beyond the numbers, Prairie Crest Vista offers the kind of setting that appeals to those seeking a change of pace. The land is quiet, functional, and ready for someone's plans. It's not a showpiece or a heavily improved property it's raw acreage with good bones, positioned in a location that makes sense both practically and financially. The seasons move across the open ground with clarity spring growth, summer heat, autumn color, winter stillness and the land responds to care and attention in predictable, rewarding ways.
For those considering multiple tracts, the availability of a neighboring 20+/- acre parcel is available, offering the opportunity for additional acreage.
The distance to Clinton Lake adds recreational value that extends beyond the property itself. The lake's trail system, public lands, and boat access make it a year-round destination for fishing, hiking, biking, and wildlife observation. Having a rural homesite minutes from the lake means quick access to outdoor activities without the cost or commitment of lakefront property. It's a practical middle ground for those who value proximity to water and public recreation without waterfront maintenance or premium pricing.
Prairie Crest Vista also appeals to those transitioning from urban or suburban settings who want more space and autonomy without losing touch with the conveniences of town. The commute to Lawrence is short enough for daily work, errands, or social activities, yet the property itself offers a marked shift in atmosphere less noise, more sky, and the freedom to shape your surroundings without neighborhood restrictions or covenants that limit outdoor projects, animals, or agricultural pursuits.
The protective covenants in place here strike a reasonable balance. They're designed to prevent derelict structures, junk accumulation, or incompatible commercial uses, while allowing typical rural activities including livestock, gardens, outbuildings, and agricultural equipment. They're intended to maintain the area's appeal and protect long-term property values without creating the kind of restrictive environment common in suburban developments. Buyers should obtain and review the full text of the covenants during their due diligence to ensure compatibility with their plans.
From a land use perspective, Prairie Crest Vista is adaptable. The open ground can be hayed, pastured, or left fallow. The tree line can be enhanced with additional plantings or left as-is for natural wildlife habitat. Building sites can be oriented for passive solar gain, privacy, or view optimization depending on priorities. Access points and driveways can be configured to suit the layout, and the relatively level topography allows for a range of architectural styles and site designs.
The property is being offered as raw land with no existing structures, wells, or improvements. This provides a blank slate for buyers to develop according to their own vision and timeline, but it also means that all infrastructure water, septic, electric service, and access improvements will need to be installed and permitted by the buyer. Prospective purchasers should budget accordingly and conduct appropriate due diligence on utility availability, soil suitability, and local zoning and building requirements.
Prairie Crest Vista is not a flashy property, but it's a solid one. It offers the essentials that make rural land functional and livable good access, reasonable terrain, available utilities, protective covenants, and a location that balances isolation with convenience. For buyers ready to build, invest, or transition to country living, it represents a straightforwar

Setting and Location

Stone Ridge Estates lies within a mile of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property surrounding Clinton Lake, putting thousands of acres of public land within easy reach. The area supports abundant wildlifedeer, turkey, waterfowl, and songbirds are regular visitorsand offers easy access to outdoor activities throughout the year.
Nearby recreation includes Bloomington Beach, several boat ramps, the Kansas Sailing Association site, and multiple campgrounds. Residents can launch a boat, fish, or hike at the lake and be home in minutes.
Daily convenience is straightforward: the K-10 bypass provides efficient travel in and around Lawrence, while continuing west on County Road 458 past the tracts is a 15 minute connection to highway 75 on the south end of Topeka, and I-70 is readily accessible for longer trips. Despite its accessibility, the setting remains quiet, open, and distinctly rural.
________________________________________
Utilities and Access
Each tract has been designed with practical building in mind. Rural water meters are currently available for all parcels, though buyers should confirm details with Douglas County Rural Water District No. 3. Tract 3 includes an installed water meter already in place.
Electric service runs along the access road. There are multiple options for internet, including Starlink satellite service and local wireless or cellular providers.
All three tracts are partially fenced, and property lines follow natural contours to preserve usable acreage. County roads provide dependable access, and the terrain offers good drainage and a mix of open pasture with scattered trees.
________________________________________
Tracts 1 & 2 Rolling Ground and Long Views
The north end of Stone Ridge Estates begins with Tracts 1 and 2, which display the kind of topography buyers expect from prime Kansas acreage. Both tracts feature gradual elevation changes, open meadows, and long-range views across the surrounding countryside. The contours create natural building sites that sit slightly elevated, ideal for homes that capture sunsets or overlook future pasture and garden areas.
Each tract measures about twenty acres, large enough to support livestock, 4-H projects, outbuildings, or a private lane without crowding the residence. The mix of grassland and light tree cover provides balanceopen enough for flexibility, but with enough natural shape to avoid a flat, monotonous feel.
Because of their alignment, Tracts 1 and 2 can also be purchased together to form a forty-acre holding. Combined, they create an excellent footprint for a larger homestead, multi-family setup, or small farm operation. The terrain transitions smoothly between the two, and the shared boundary makes it easy to plan cross-fencing or a connecting driveway.

Tract 3 Water Features and Flexible Layout
Tract 3 sits just south of Tracts 1 and 2 and presents more diverse elevation changes more diverse natural features. It includes two small ponds that attract wildlife and add visual appeal from multiple vantage points. The surrounding slopes provide ideal spots for a home overlooking the water or tucked deeper into the property for privacy.
A rural water meter is already installed, and electric service is nearby, which shortens the timeline from purchase to building. The lands natural drainage and open character make it suitable for both residential and hobby farm use. The soil supports pasture, hay, or small-scale livestock, while the elevation changes give each section of the tract a distinct look and purpose.
Because it adjoins Tracts 1 and 2, Tract 3 could be combined with one or both to create a larger estate totaling 40 or 60 acres. Together, these northern tracts form a cohesive block of ground well suited to buyers who want additional space for family, livestock, or recreational ground without losing convenience to town.
________________________________________
Wildlife and Outdoor Appeal
Stone Ridge Estates is surrounded by habitat that supports a healthy population of wildlife. Deer, turkey, and waterfowl move regularly between the Corps of Engineers property and the ponds and draws that run through the tracts. Songbirds and Bald Eagles are common sights, adding to the appeal for those who appreciate the outdoors.
Owners will also enjoy close proximity to the recreation areas around Clinton Lakeboat ramps, campgrounds, and multi-use trails are all within minutes. Whether the goal is a morning of fishing, a trail ride, or simply sitting on a porch watching the weather roll in, the land offers the kind of everyday connection to nature thats becoming harder to find near population centers.
________________________________________
Lifestyle and Use Options
These tracts provide genuine versatility. A buyer could establish a full-time residence with open space for equipment, livestock, and outbuildingsor maintain the land primarily for recreation and weekend use. With twenty acres each, the parcels are large enough for practical land management yet small enough to maintain efficiently.
Because of their layout and shared boundaries, the three tracts can serve a range of purposes:
Single-tract ownership for a private country home.
Multi-tract purchase for extended family living near one another.
Investment holding for buyers who wish to own quality land near the Clinton Lake corridor.
Each tract allows for flexible site planning. Gentle slopes provide natural run-off, and the orientation of the ridges maximizes daylight and wind flow. The terrain lends itself to traditional ranch designs, modern farmhouses, or metal-building barndominiumswhatever fits the buyers vision and lifestyle.

In the near future, additional parcels will be offered, including two tracts with existing homes and one tract featuring substantial outbuildings suitable for storage, shop work, or agricultural use. These upcoming listings will complement the current offering, giving buyers more optionswhether they prefer raw ground or improved property with infrastructure already in place.

Stone Ridge Estate Tract 10 is a striking 35 acre parcel characterized by open native Kansas prairie, gentle sloping terrain, and exceptional privacy. This tract is positioned at the end of a dead-end road where the county road terminates directly into Corps of Engineers groundcreating a level of seclusion and quiet that is seldom found so close to major amenities. For anyone seeking a private build site, recreational retreat, or a long-term land investment, Tract 10 presents a compelling opportunity.
The land is composed entirely of native grasses, giving it a true prairie feel and offering a landscape that changes beautifully with the seasons. The terrain moves with broad, steady slopes rather than abrupt changes, making the land ideal for construction while still providing elevation variation that enhances views and creates a sense of depth. Several natural build sites exist across the tract, allowing future owners to choose their preferred orientationsunrise, sunset, or a vantage point overlooking the sweeping plains.
To the east, the property is bordered by Corps of Engineers ground that stretches all the way to the Clinton Lake complex. This large buffer of public land not only protects the eastern view from future development but also opens the door to recreation and wildlife activity. Deer, turkey, and upland birds are common in the area, benefitting from the combination of native grasses, nearby water sources, and large tracts of protected land. To the south, across the county road, additional Corps acreage provides yet another undisturbed landscape. The result is a property surrounded by natural beauty and habitat, with privacy that feels far larger than its actual footprint.
Despite its seclusion, the property is accessible and usable. The layout supports a range of potential future improvements such as fencing, small pasture sections, garden areas, or recreational enhancements like food plots or trails. A private water well would be required for a residence on this tract, which is standard for the region. Electric service is nearby, giving future owners flexibility on where to situate their home or arrival drive.
One of the most defining features of Tract 10 is the dead-end road on which it sits. With no through-traffic and neighboring land held in a mix of private and public ownership, the setting feels peaceful and removed from the rush of everyday life. Whether used as a personal residence, a second home, or simply a long-term land investment, this tract offers the kind of privacy that cannot be replicated once the surrounding area begins to grow.
Tract 10 sits directly east of Stone Ridge Ranch, the central homestead parcel with home and outbuildings. To the west of the ranch, Stone Ridge Estate Tract 8 offers an additional 20 acres. All three tracts are available individually or together. Buyers seeking a larger landholding whether for privacy, recreation, or livestock are encouraged to reference the neighboring listings. See MLS # 2584023 and #2583985 for more information.
In alignment with the sellers long-term vision for the property, Tract 10 cannot go under contract until a contract has been executed on Stone Ridge Ranch. This ensures that the buyer of the home has the first opportunity to purchase adjoining acreage. It is a thoughtful structure designed to preserve flexibility for the core parcel and to allow future owners to shape their acreage to fit their goals.
The combination of native prairie, Corps adjacency, end-of-road seclusion, and proximity to Clinton Lake places Tract 10 among the most desirable types of rural acreage available in this region. Whether you envision a long driveway leading to a private homesite, or you see the land as a recreational getaway with room to explore, this tract offers the space, natural features, and privacy needed to bring that vision to life.
Properties of this scale and quality rarely come availableespecially neighboring other listings that allow for expansion. For buyers seeking privacy, native beauty, and direct proximity to public lands, Stone Ridge Estate Tract 10 is a truly compelling offering.

The need for new housing for the 4,000 new employees of the new Panasonic Plant in DeSoto will be fulfilled
by the development of this 242 acres. This property is one of the closest locations to the plant that can be used
for housing to support the need generated by the new employees at the plant. It is approximately 20 miles from
the plant by using K-10 Highway from its front door to the plant. An approximate 20 minute drive by a 4-lane
highway.
The Kansas City Metro will have 11.2 million square feet of industrial space under construction in 2025. The
Panasonic plant at the former Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant in DeSoto accounts for 4.7 million square feet
of that total.
The Panasonic plant currently is the third largest industrial project under construction in the entire US.
Construction has been underway for more than a year, and one part of the plant is expected to soon open. In
January, Kansas officials believed that battery production at a portion of the plant would begin this month.
The company in January said it had 400 employees hired and expected to have 1,000 in place by the summer.
The huge DeSoto plant you could fit the Eiffel Tower in the building if you placed it on its side has two
wings. Only the first wing is nearing completion. Once both wings are open, the plant is expected to employ
4,000 people.
Kansas officials have acknowledged that on of their ultimate goals is to have an auto company locate an entire
vehicle manufacturing plant next to the Panasonic battery plant. The site certainly has room for it in its 9,000
acres.
