Timber Ridge Retreat a Southwest-Inspired Estate on 57 +/- Acres

Set behind a gated, code-access entrance and surrounded by 57 +/- acres of predominantly mature timber, this extraordinary, fully furnished property delivers the ultimate in privacy, recreation, and refined country living. With 55 +/- acres of wooded seclusion, a stocked pond, and an extensive trail system, the setting creates a true retreat environment, quiet, scenic, and entirely your own. At the heart of the property sits a custom-built, approximately 2,225 square foot residence designed with a distinctive octagonal footprint and a striking Southwest Santa Fe ambiance. Inside, the home showcases a blend of rock, tile, and wood finishes, complemented by Pella doors and windows that flood the space with natural light. The open upstairs loft offers an airy, inviting space, while the custom kitchen features stainless steel appliances and seamless functionality for both everyday living and entertaining. The home includes two conforming bedrooms and one non-conforming bedroom, along with two full bathrooms. Upstairs from the spiral staircase, enjoy the space that is ideal for an additional bedroom, office, or reading nook, that beams with natural light. The imported Saltillo tiled flooring that runs throughout the home sets the style, with ideal durability and practicality, along with heated floors in the walkout basement, adding an extra level of comfort. A wood-burning stove anchors the living area, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere year-round, while the basement also houses a conveniently located laundry room. Every room of the home not only offers incredible views, but also the peace and quiet of each space is unreal. Outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a fully wrapped 360-degree deck and patio designed to capture panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. A retractable panel even allows for a private golf driving range experience. The property also features a hot tub with a new replacement cover, an above-ground pool with a recently replaced pump, tasteful low-maintenance landscaping, and a fenced raised garden bed that is ideal for the hobbyist at heart. Overlooking the stocked pond, home to bass, bluegill, crappie, channel catfish, and sterile grass carp, a charming gazebo with a deck and a dock provides the perfect setting for relaxation or entertaining. Meandering walking trails wind throughout the timber, offering endless opportunities for exploration and wildlife enjoyment. The hunting here is nothing less than extraordinary as well. The terrain is laid out with the foundation to be able to cut in multiple food plot areas with additional stand locations. Whitetail, turkey, and quail are actively on the property. With the rolling topography and elevation changes throughout just at 90', the landscape is nothing short of breathtaking and provides endless habitat. There are 3 spring-fed streams running throughout the property, 1 feeding the current pond, with the additional 2 just to the north that would allow one to expand the current pond or build a 2nd pond of size. Additional improvements include a 75'x42' shop with a 40'x40' fully finished bonus space complete with a wet bar, theater area, and full bathroom, ideal for hosting or creating a private entertainment retreat. The wood-burning stove in the shop provides supplemental heat and perfect ambiance on the colder days. Storage space is limitless with a spacious locking closet with overhead storage. The west side of the shop offers open garage space and equipment storage with two overhead doors. This side too holds ample storage with overhead space as well. The property is serviced by two electric meters (residence and shop), a private water well, a septic system with aerator and laterals, a geothermal water furnace on the residence, FreeState Electric, and Starlink internet for modern connectivity in a secluded setting. All mineral rights are intact, and the property is further supported by an American Home Shield. The property was surveyed in 2019, creating 2 separate tracts, 35.92 acres and 21.68 acres total, that have been grandfathered by Douglas County. Conveniently located just 9 miles from Overbrook, 18 miles from Lawrence, and 53 miles from Kansas City, this rare offering combines accessibility with total privacy.
