Welcome to Whispering Creek Estate, a 20-acre homesite located between Clinton Lake and Lone Star Lake, in one of the more desirable areas of Douglas County. This is the kind of setting that offers room to breathe, nearby water access, and a piece of ground worth taking a second look at. A meandering creek winds through the property, shaded by a mature stand of timber that offers natural privacy and shapes an appealing home site. The gentle topography and open acreage give you flexibility for a homestead, hobby farm, or simply space to spread out, while hard-surfaced road frontage means easy, reliable access year-round. Location is what sets this one apart. You're just minutes from both Clinton Lake and Lone Star Lake, with campgrounds, swim beaches, horse trails, and public hunting and fishing access nearby, so outdoor life is easy to fold into everyday living, not just weekend plans. Lawrence is a short drive away for shopping, dining, and schools, giving you the rare combination of rural quiet and city convenience. The groundwork is already done. Water meters are available, and the property has access to high-speed internet, so building here is straightforward from day one. Land like this, with creek frontage, mature timber, and quick access to two lakes, does not come up often in this area. If you have been waiting for a property that feels different the moment you walk it, come see Whispering Creek Estate before it is gone.
