Property Description
Some properties are measured in acres. Others are measured in generations. Just north of Burlington, Kansas, along a prominent ridge overlooking the Neosho River, lies a remarkable piece of Coffey County history—originally known as Schaffer Hill. Today, the original stone entry welcomes you to an S-shaped drive—said to honor the Schaffer family name. As the road winds up the hill, it reveals open pasture, productive crop ground, a flowing stream, stocked pond and exceptional habitat for livestock, horses and wildlife, along with approximately 800 feet of frontage on the Neosho River and exceptional hunting opportunities. The modern 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home offers main floor living as well as many upgraded features. A 30' x 60' divided outbuilding with concrete floor provides ample space for equipment, storage or projects, with one section heated and cooled for year-round use. An original wooden windmill, designed and built by the Schaffers, once pumped water from a hand-dug well into a riveted steam-locomotive water tank. That ingenious system supplied water to the homes and barn. Nearby, the original summer kitchen still stands, complete with its large stone fireplace—once used for cooking and canning without heating the main house. Hand-built stonework and distinctive rock features remain throughout the property, each one reflecting the craftsmanship, determination and foresight of those who came before. This is more than beautiful Kansas land—it's your access to hunting, fishing, boating and recreation, with John Redmond Reservoir just over a mile away and several other recreational lakes nearby, including Wolf Creek Reservoir, as well as convenient access to an airport. This is Schaffer Hill—a legacy worth preserving.
