Description
If you’re looking for a large, world-class hunting property in Eastern Kansas, a property large enough to hold deer throughout the year, a property that provides everything needed to allow bucks to reach their maximum potential, and want the property turn key and ready to go from day one, then look no further. This sprawling 840-acre ranch is a sight to behold. The amount of effort, attention to detail, and layout of this property will rival any property on the market today. Located in the Cross Timbers Ecoregion is a unique topography of forested floodplains surrounded by terraces of prairie grass, and rolling hills of hardwoods and oak savannas. This provides some of the most diverse habitat in the state of Kansas. One look at the aerial and you will see the massive amount of rolling hardwood-covered hills and draws, This cover provides ideal habitat for deer to evade hunters and predators, enabling them to reach full maturity. All while providing natural food sources in the form of mast crops, Forbes, and native browse. This property gently transitions from rolling hills of thick timber to soft edges of oak Savannas, then to lush prairie grass flats. This transition of edges not only provides diversity but also sets up ideal locations for deer activity and prime ambush locations. To further help draw the wildlife to more confined locations, the current owner has broken out and planted approx. 60 acres more or less in food plots planted in various food sources, such as Brassicas, Rye, and Clo-ver, just to name a few. Staging plots and hinge cut edges were painstakingly carved out in the timber, leading to the larger feeder plots planted in the open hillsides and flats of the prairie grass. Plans to add another 20-30 acres of row crop production have already been arranged if the new owner desires. An extensive trail system with imported gravel has been put in place to give access throughout the farm, and its borders. 2 firebreaks have been carved out dividing the farm into 3rds to allow for safety, as well as the option to only burn certain portions of the farm a year if desired. Tall mounds of dirt have been piled up along the road frontage to prevent the temptation of road hunting and to add a sense of security for the wildlife. On the north side in the old-growth timber, Expansive piles of trees were lined out along the road frontage to provide the same sense of security and cover, all while allowing strategic locations for the wildlife to pass through. There are several ponds/watering holes throughout the property along with pockets of spring water in the draws and ridge bottoms providing year-round water. The property has 8 gates to gain access to the farm from various locations which allows access and approach to the entire farm in nearly all wind directions. You really need to see this property in person to fully appreciate just how perfectly set up it is. The farm has an exceptional and well-thought-out 3 bed 2 bath shophouse with 1500 sq./ft living space and 1500 sq./ft heat-ed shop area with 3 garage doors to store your equipment, extra vehicle, UTVs, tractors, etc. This property truly is one of a kind and will not disappoint. There is an additional 587 acres available with equally great hunting located approx. 20 minutes away from this farm. Call the listing agent today to schedule your own private showing.
