Description

Located at 129 S. Mill Street in Glen Elder, Kansas, this one-of-a-kind property offers an outstanding opportunity for anyone looking to enjoy the Waconda Lake lifestyle while benefiting from an exceptionally versatile building. Situated approximately 1900' from the Waconda Lake shoreline and only minutes from Glen Elder State Park, this property combines comfortable modern living with abundant storage, workshop space, and commercial possibilities.

Originally constructed in 2002, this impressive 40' x 114' steel-frame building was built with durability and longevity in mind. The structure features metal construction, double insulation, 2x6 wall construction, and a reinforced block wall system extending approximately three feet below grade. Commercial-grade electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems further reflect the quality that went into its construction.

One of the property's most appealing features is the approximately 2,400-square-foot residence, completed in 2023. Designed for comfortable everyday living, the home offers an inviting open-concept floor plan with approximately 1,200 square feet dedicated to the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Whether you're hosting family after a day on the lake or simply relaxing at home, this spacious gathering area provides flexibility and comfort.

The residence includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms with all new flooring throughout. The kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, featuring composite countertops, a large 4' x 10' island with a Formica countertop, and kitchen appliances that are only three years old. The oversized island creates an ideal gathering space for entertaining family and friends before or after spending time at the lake.

The primary bathroom features both a walk-in shower and a large soaking tub, creating a comfortable retreat after a day of boating, fishing, or exploring Glen Elder State Park. LED lighting throughout the residence contributes to energy efficiency, while a whole-house water softener and filtration system enhance everyday convenience.

Beyond the living quarters, the property continues to impress with exceptional functional space. The attached workshop includes tiled flooring, storage shelving, a second bathroom with shower, and large double-door access directly from the street, making it ideal for hobbies, projects, or secure storage.

An additional highlight is the approximately 580-square-foot attached garage, complete with a concrete floor, spray foam insulation, and a 12' x 12' overhead door. An existing RV hookup makes this space especially attractive for storing campers, boats, lake vehicles, or recreational equipment. A corner-style hot tub is conveniently located in this space as well. Whether you're an avid angler, boater, or outdoor enthusiast, you'll appreciate having ample room for all your gear just minutes from one of Kansas' premier recreational destinations.

The property also includes approximately 1,400 square feet of retail frontage overlooking the Glen Elder town square. Formerly known as Stortz Stop N Shop, the space has served as a combination bait and tackle shop, grocery store, and antique store. Existing shelving, coolers, and select inventory provide a head start for someone wishing to reopen a retail business, while the flexible layout could easily accommodate a workshop, hobby area, gathering space, additional storage, or future expansion of the residential living area.

The true appeal of this property is its versatility. Buyers seeking a permanent residence near Waconda Lake will appreciate the modern living space and oversized garage. Those searching for a weekend lake retreat will enjoy having secure storage for boats, campers, and recreational equipment just minutes from the water. Entrepreneurs may recognize the value of the existing retail frontage, while hobbyists will appreciate the workshop and flexible floor plan.

Waconda Lake and Glen Elder State Park are well known throughout Kansas for exceptional walleye, crappie, white bass, catfish, and striped bass fishing, along with boating, camping, hiking, hunting, wildlife viewing, and year-round outdoor recreation. Opportunities to own a property that combines modern residential living with this level of flexibility and such close proximity to the lake are uncommon.

Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a lake headquarters, a weekend getaway, or a property that blends residential comfort with business or hobby potential, this Glen Elder property deserves a closer look.
