Elizabeth Eakins Wigglesworth - founder of the noted carpet and textile firm Elizabeth Eakins, Inc. - is offering for sale her 240+/- acre ranch located in the Flint Hills of Kansas. At the heart of the ranch lies the homestead that was established some 150 years ago by Andrew W. Nordeen, an immigrant from Sweden, who built the ranch house out of limestone rock he quarried from one of the pastures on this ranch.
Today, the Wigglesworth Ranch is a sanctuary of unique country living in a setting that includes a professionally refurbished native stone home, a charming guest house, and several outbuildings, all surrounded by an ample amount of hardwood trees. This homestead is sited on a very diverse tract of land that has gently rolling hills covered in native tall grasses, wildflowers, and several crop fields of alfalfa. There are two attractive spring-fed ponds and a meandering tree-covered creek traversing the property.
Title to this property is subject to non-perpetual restrictions attached to the deed
