E. Parallel Road , Pretty Prairie, KS 67570(Reno County)

The “Valley View Ranch” located just 30 miles from Wichita, and just a few miles north of Cheney Lake, is in a picture-perfect setting. A working cattle ranch, this property is a multi-parcel acquisition with the headquarters parcel being 785 acres in size and sitting along the valley edge with an outstanding metal home and shop overlooking the lake and valley. With wide-open vast views of the valley, this property has some of the best scenery we have come across yet. The property is fully operational with an average stocking rate of 200 spring pairs. At this time, those pairs are run only on the headquarters tract of 785 acres. There are a large number of additional acres that have yet to be utilized for grazing. The ranch also provides approximately 400 bales of prairie hay on a typical rainfall year in addition to the grazing program. There are 230 tillable acres that were all put to wheat in the 2017 season. Those acres made 85/bushel wheat on non-grazed and still made 50/bushel wheat after partial grazing. There are currently 280+/- acres of CRP on an outlying tract that will come out of CRP in October 2018. That CRP pays approximately $10,000 annually for additional income. “Valley View Ranch” also provides great hunting and fishing opportunities with some good heavy deer cover, tree rows, and two outstanding fishing ponds with LUNKER bass in place. This area is known to produce big heavy bucks, great quail and turkey, and of course outstanding waterfowl hunting. For the hunter or rancher, this property does have an existing and current water irrigation well permit that could be utilized with 40-acre feet of water allowed. This well sits right near two agriculture fields and could be used with a pivot irrigator or as water for a floodable impoundment for ducks and geese. Since it sits just over a mile from Cheney lake the waterfowl numbers are also already in place. The home and shop were recently built and are in excellent condition. The living area is approximately 1330 sq. ft. with the loft included. It is 1 bedroom, 1 bath, kitchen, utility room, and living room. All cabinets and doors are Amish custom made from local craftsman. The building is 40’X60’ so there is also 1760 sq. ft. of the shop area. All this is heated by in floor heat but also includes gas furnace and central air.

Just a mile from Cheney Lake where there are many additional recreational possibilities make this a tremendous opportunity.
