Discover your own slice of serenity at Buffalo Creek Ranch!
Nestled on approximately 80 +/- acres, this property is situated close to the breathtaking Niobrara National Scenic River and merely a short 35-mile drive east of Valentine, Nebraska. A live creek meanders through the landscape, drawing a diverse array of native wildlife including deer and turkey. For those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, this opportunity is not to be overlooked! Whether your passion lies in hunting, hiking, or capturing nature through photography, this acreage offers an ideal sanctuary for any outdoor enthusiasts!
The property also features a Victorian-style home rich in history and captures stunning views of the Niobrara River. From the solid oak pillars and welcoming wooden staircase to pocket doors and custom kitchen cabinets – the home boasts unmatched craftsmanship in every detail. The home showcases numerous windows allowing an abundance of natural light to enter. The upstairs is a personal haven in itself boasting the potential for four bedrooms with large closets and is adorned with original wood floors. The basement also provides abundant space and presents an opportunity to craft your own personalized living area. The home has had many updates as well that include a well, septic system, plumbing, electrical, furnace, cement siding, roof, and windows. Enjoy the front porch and soak in the serene river views or take it all in from inside through the abundant windows, the beauty that mother nature has to offer at Buffalo Creek Ranch are unmatched!
There are also several popular attractions within a short drive. Nearby Smith Falls State Park offers camping, tubing, and other activities along the Niobrara River and is home of Nebraska's highest waterfall! Some of the best golf courses in Nebraska are close by as well including The Prairie Club and Frederick Peak. There is also Merritt Reservoir providing ample opportunities for fishing, boating, and hunting.
Additionally, this property presents a unique opportunity for entrepreneurial ventures. With over 5000 visitors to the river each weekend during the summer months and limited non-camping accommodations in the area, this property and charming Victorian-style home would serve as a great bed-and-breakfast or area to rent for guest seeking a peaceful get-a-way! Unlike many properties along this stretch of the river, this property does not have conservation easements, enabling you to add buildings or make improvements.
