Recreation
All numbers of varied wildlife make this parcel home. While the large whitetail bucks in this part of Kansas get the most attention (and this property excels in that department), this property also has opportunities to hunt waterfowl, turkey, quail and furbearers.
The landscape is rich with deer sign which is a testament to the fact that this property has not been hunted in many, many years. Tracks, wallowed out scrapes and rubs on shredded trees seem to be everywhere. Ducks and geese use the ponds and river corridor as they migrate through the central flyway each year. The serenity of early spring time mornings are broken up by the whistles of bobwhite quail and thundering gobbles of both Rio Grande and Eastern turkeys.
The Elk River regularly produces extremely large catfish other assorted native species. With a full half mile of river bank to explore and cast from, there are plenty of action at the end of your line. Any or all of the three ponds could be further stocked and enjoyed for generations ahead.
Agriculture
This property has +/-30 acres of tillable farmland, two separate hay meadows totaling 22 acres and approximately 60 acres of pasture. The hay meadows could each be converted to additional crop land if desired. There is a current, year to year farming lease in place.
Water/Mineral Rights & Natural Resources
The seller is believed to own all the mineral rights and water rights. Both mineral rights and water rights are expected to transfer upon closing. No current oil and gas leases exist at this time.
