North Salt Marsh Road, Lot#WP001 , Sylvia, KS 67581(Reno County)

WATERFOWLING OPPORTUNITY!!!!! Everybody wants the availability of water next to Quivira National Wildlife Refuge! Adjoining the Refuge, this incredible recreational property is everything you need if you are a waterfowl and/or deer enthusiast. A branch off Salt Creek flows through the property from north to south, creating Dead Horse slough, which provides an excellent waterway for waterfowl. While it does naturally hold good amounts of water due to rainfall and natural flow, this property is in a unique situation with the availability and overall acreage of open water and marsh. Nearly 17 acres of drainage area flows through the property, with a good portion of that consistently maintaining water to hunt over. There is also a certified appropriation via the state that authorizes the pond/marsh to maintain over 6/acres along Dead Horse Slough and allows for 15 acre/feet to be accumulated in the marsh area at natural flows from the tributary. With this certified allowance, this marsh area can be structured to the new owners preference. Having this large natural wetland area stretching through the middle of the property, it will allow for a variety of setups for wind or decoy layouts and blind placement. The Quivira National Wildlife Refuge is well known for hosting significant amounts of migrating waterfowl every year, and the hunting has been second to none with the ability to fix wetlands with the birds in mind. Quivira is also known as a great area for world-class deer hunting as well. This property is no exception and has been owned by an experienced deer and wildlife manager who has consistently harvested trophy-quality deer in this area for decades. With a timber pocket and great cover throughout the property, many good deer have been known to frequent the multiple food plots that the owner has put in. Feeders and blinds are in place, which makes this property turn-key for this upcoming season. This property sets up well for either bow hunting or rifle hunting with several setups that are in tight and several setups that the hunter can look over some large distanced habitat. The current owner also recently entered into a CRP agreement that will start fall of 2022 and will run for 10 years producing approximately $5,526 annually spread across approximately 120/acres of the farm. There are two large casing domestic/livestock wells in place on the property, one of which is currently operating. If building a hunting cabin or home is in the plans, this property already has electric available with a meter as well and is located only 1 mile off a blacktop road for easy access. If you are a big deer or waterfowl enthusiast, then look no further than this property right here. This will be a top-producing combination farm for quality aged deer and abundant waterfowl over the fall and winter months. Please contact the listing agent to see this property in person.
