Manhattan KS Real Estate & Land for Sale

This irrigated quarter of cropland, currently producing corn and soybeans, is located on the west side of Manhattan. The land is currently zoned as agricultural but has the potential to be rezoned to industrial based on the current Future Land Use Map found in the Manhattan Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and the Eureka Valley Highway K-18 Corridor Plan for industrial expansion, creating an investment opportunity for businesses looking to expand or relocate to the Manhattan Area. The location offers road frontage on the southern and western boundaries with Eureka Drive being a wide paved roadway. The acreage is close to Manhattan Regional Airport, Highway K-18(Fort Riley BLVD), and Interstate 70 providing excellent opportunities for distribution of goods. Currently the land is being farmed, with approximately 106 acres being irrigated by a center pivot system. The soils consist of a mixture of class 2 and 3 Wymore Silty Clay loam and consistently produce quality crops. The farmland also attracts Fort Riley Elk herd each winter seeking a food source, resulting in a unique recreational experience. There are several grassed waterways that provide outlets for any surface runoff and also create additional habitat for wildlife. The sellers water rights associated with the center pivot irrigation system will transfer to the buyer. There is also electricity nearby along both adjacent roadways. The buyer will be responsible for due diligence to rezone the land to industrial as well as any building regulations due to close proximity to the Manhattan Regional airport.
