Hobert/West Tract 1

Property Description

Vaughn-Roth Land Brokers is proud to present these Anderson County, Kansas properties to the public on behalf of our clients Scott and Debra Hobert and Larry West. Desirably located on 58 Highway between LeRoy and Colony, these are neighboring parcels with the Hobert tract on the east side of Arkansas Rd. and the West property is just across the road to the west. These offerings will fit diverse buyer interests, whether you’re looking for an existing home in the country, expanding your farm operation with additional cropland, desire a recreational escape to relax or an excellent building site with pavement and utilities nearby, you’ll find plenty to like here! These properties are being offered via online auction beginning at Noon on 1/21/2025 with a dynamic closing beginning on 1/23/25 at 10:00 a.m.

Tract 1 consists of the Hobert residence, good metal building and 5 +/- acres which is located at 12864 Arkansas Rd., Colony, KS. The home is a modular build by Advanced System Homes of Chanute and was constructed in 2004. It encompasses 1,694 sq. ft. on the main floor and consists of 3 Bedrooms and 3 Bathrooms with an unfinished basement. The basement does have some structural issues. The Broker and the Seller recommends that potential buyers have an inspection done so they are comfortable with what they are bidding on as the property sells as-is with no warranties or guarantees. The detached garage was constructed in 2003 according to County records and measures 30’X50’ with 3 garage bays. This is a spacious and good quality building for storage of vehicles and equipment.

This property also offers multiple amenities outside such as plenty of room for pets and livestock with the addition of fencing. There’s a thick grove of trees to the north of the home providing wind protection as well as a visual and noise barrier from Highway 58. The area to the west of the metal building would be an excellent location to add fencing if you desire to keep livestock on the premises.
