Secluded 8-Acre Retreat with Big Creek Frontage – Less Than 1 Hour from Kansas City. Escape the city and embrace nature on this rare 8-acre gem with nearly 1,500 feet of frontage along the beautiful Big Creek. Located less than an hour from Kansas City and just a couple of miles from the Katy Trail, this unique property offers the perfect blend of seclusion, recreation, and convenience. Whether you're an avid hunter, angler, or simply seeking a peaceful spot to build your dream home, this property has it all. The grounds feature a mix of open space and mature woods, including walnut and fruit trees, attracting an abundance of wildlife—deer, turkey, ducks, hummingbirds, cardinals, and even the occasional beaver, raccoon, or coyote. Fish right from your property, where the previous owners have reeled in various species, including catfish up to 100 pounds. When water levels are right, you can boat or kayak about a mile in either direction on Big Creek. Two cleared access points make it easy to cast a line or launch your boat. Set back on a quiet dead-end road with no through traffic, the property includes a well-maintained 14x20 double-loft cabin shed, situated on a solid 20x40 poured concrete pad. The cabin features a cozy front porch facing west—the perfect spot to watch the sunset—as well as electricity, internet, and outdoor water access. It's insulated and comes with a brand-new, never-used wood-burning stove and several cords of firewood. Most appliances and furniture will remain with the property, offering a turnkey getaway or head start for your future build. Water levels along the creek fluctuate, but the front 2 to 3 acres remain high and dry—ideal for building. In the past 7 years, the water has only breached the banks once, and never close to the prime building area. Why fight traffic to reach a crowded lake when you can enjoy this one-of-a-kind creekside haven—just half the distance from the city? Don’t miss your chance to own this piece of the outdoors.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
