Build Ready 10 +/- Acre Retreat Just Outside Melvern, KS
Situated approximately 3 miles northwest of Melvern lies this unique 10?+/-?acre building site, a rare opportunity for those seeking both convenience and serenity. Rural water and electric are already in place, and a sturdy 10-inch concrete slab awaits, so construction can begin right away.
Here, youll enjoy privacy and respite from daily noise, an ideal canvas for your forever home. There is an existing manufactured home which is being sold as-is and will require extensive repair or removal. However, beneath the current home lies the concrete slab you can use as a ready foundation for your new build, saving so much time and cost. Ample room remains to add a barn or pens, and the partially fenced pasture with two ponds is welcoming for livestock. Wooded edges along the south and east boundaries draw in wildlife and provide a natural buffer and add to the beauty of the property.
