Description
PRICE REDUCED! As you head west from Wichita, water becomes the defining challenge of the landscape. Creeks fade, ponds shrink, and rivers slow to a trickle in the heat of summer—unless you’re fortunate enough to find land blessed with natural springs. This property is one of those rare exceptions.
Here, water doesn’t just linger—it thrives. Seven spring-fed ponds and a connected wetland system are sustained year-round by several strong springs and the headwaters of Blue Stem Creek. Five of these ponds are joined by overflow piping that carries water from the north boundary to the south, flowing under the county road and into the neighboring draw. The remaining ponds hold steady on their own, each fed by reliable underground sources that have never gone dry.
Bass, crappie, and catfish have been carefully managed over the years, offering excellent angling opportunities for the next owner. Canada geese are regular visitors in both spring and fall, and mallards crowd the ponds during the autumn migration. To the north of the main pond system, there are several low areas where the springs flirt with the ground level, and in years past, with cooler, wetter months, these areas have also held water in a shallow fashion and have been a strong attractant for ducks. For the serious waterfowl hunter, some construction of a floodable food source in these areas could be possible to enhance the staying power of the fall migrations.
Beyond the water, the property holds promise for upland hunting. Native and planted switchgrass fields harbor several coveys of quail, and the outer pastures—currently grazed—could easily be enhanced with milo strips or additional grass plantings to improve cover and bird numbers. Scattered pockets of timber also give deer a reason to linger, offering bow or rifle hunting opportunities with minimal setup.
Overlooking the main pond system sits a well-kept single-level home, built in 1990 and thoughtfully remodeled. The 1,280-square-foot residence includes two bedrooms, one bath, and an open kitchen and living area. A spacious deck extends beneath a canopy of mature trees—Walnut, Oak, Cypress, and Cottonwood—providing a front-row seat to the ponds below. It’s the perfect setting to relax, host friends, or watch kids pull fish from the water as the sun sets across the timber line.
The manicured yard extends over several acres, offering safe, easy access to all the ponds. And with its location just 42 miles from Wichita’s airport and 47 miles from downtown, this property is close enough for a quick getaway yet far enough to feel worlds away.
For the recreational-minded family or group that wants a place to build memories with fishing and hunting, this is that opportunity. Please contact the listing agent to schedule an in-person viewing or for more information.
