About this home
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, 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....
