CEMETERY

A private cemetery is toward the north end of this tract. Callaway is currently having it cleaned up. Its landscape is clearly obvious and contains 4 known burial plots with the chance that others may be buried outside the fenced areas. Farming row crops on all 4 sides of it can take place. Being a cemetery, you will possess this small cemetery, but will not be allowed to farm thru it or desecrate it. It is approximately 3/4 of an acre with mature trees and adds to the historic presence and beauty of this parcel.

The Home:

The antebellum home was constructed in 1835 and was known as the Thomas Hemp Plantation.  It is a 4447 sq. ft structure, 2 story, and beautifully sets in the center of the farm with great views and mature trees.  It sat along the Santa Fe Trail and was a bustling hub of Saline County activity.  It served as a store and Grist Mill with the original Mill Stones still on the property.  One room served as the very first school in Saline County.  During the Civil War, it served as a Hospital for both the North and South Soldiers. 

The home was occupied by the Callaway Family until a fire in 2010 damaged two rooms in the Northeast corner of the house.  The home has not been occupied since. 

The original home furnishings are in storage and will be sold at a later date.  Approximately $350,000 has been spent on its refurbishment and more money will be required to complete the task. 

The entire house has rough plumbing and electrical work done, and two finished geothermal heating and cooling units.  The interior walls are exposed, tuck-pointed, brick.  The ceilings are taped, mudded, and sanded drywall.  There is primarily no floor covering, being exposed two layer subflooring.  The original hardwood still remains in the living and dining rooms of the first floor.  There is a small excavated basement under the west side of the kitchen used for utilities.  The main foyer hosts the geothermal unit under the grand piano staircase and the second geothermal unit is located in a small insulated utility room in the attic.  Primarily finish work needs to be complete on the house, consisting of flooring, ceiling paint, fixtures (sinks, cabinets, toilets), trim, final plumbing and electrical. 

The 48’ x 24’ shed has a painted metal exterior with an estimated 10’ x 7’ overhead door on the west side and a walk-through door on the west side.  The interior of the shed has a full concrete floor.  The interior was not viewed, but was indicated as being insulated with some finish with some finish on the south side and the north side having no finish. 

The Quonset shed is solder, being 28’ x 16’, having a painted metal exterior, with an estimated 7’ x 7’ sliding door on the south side.  The interior of the Quonset was not viewed but is assumed to unfinished with a full concrete floor.
