Upcoming Auction Acreage and Airstrip
Your chance to own That Little Hangar House on the Prairie.
A rare aviation and country living opportunity. An energy efficient custom home, 3104 sq ft on 11.4 pristine acres at the western edge of the Flint Hills. Located in the middle of 4 sq miles with only one blacktop snow route road running through the middle. A private 1,100 ft grass runway and a daylight 40′ by 28′ by 10′ high Prestressed concrete hangar/garage.
Built with strength, sustainability, simplicity and adaptability in mind, this home offers wide open living spaces, a large kitchen, generous bedrooms, sunroom, and a full Tornado proof lower level that includes the hangar/garage, a family room, two bonus rooms, full bath, laundry and game/second kitchen. Engineered for resilience and adaptability, the home features 12 inch concrete walls, prestressed concrete daylight basement construction, and a hurricane rated upper structure, designed and proven to withstand Kansas weather extremes. Average total utilities including electric, water, and propane are under $300 per month thanks to over 250 tons of thermal mass and a high efficiency 2 1/2 ton heat pump.
Views stretch across rolling Flint Hills prairie, sunrises, storm systems, and rich wildlife such as deer, birds, quail, and geese just beyond your windows. Nearly untouched native prairie, solitude from neighboring properties, and direct access to nature make it unlike anything on the market. The prestressed concrete hangar (designed for a Helio Courier, with full width sliding doors) offers exceptional security and environmental stability, with direct access to the runway.
This is a once in a lifetime property, ideal for pilots, lifestyle buyers, rural retreat seekers, or those who value independence, strength in construction and adaptability.
There is an easement located along the east side of the property. The new owners will retain ownership of the land; however, they have no obligation for maintenance associated with the easement.
