948 Osage Road , Yates Center, KS 66783(Woodson County)

Income producing properties in big deer producing areas are always a hot item. This 152 acre property located just southeast of Yates Center, KS is no exception and has everything the investment minded recreational buyer is looking for. The property consists of 92 tillable acres which bring in a $65/acre cash rent totaling $6,000/year on a lease that will expire 11/15/21. In addition to the tillable income, there is a concrete floor 30’x50’ metal building with 10’x50’ lean-to with electricity and an additional 70’x72’ barn that the seller will rent back for 10 years at $250/month for storage. The 8 grain bins on the property are currently leased on a per bushel basis and generally average $1,100/year with a low year being $400 and a high year being $1,600. A rough average of annual income for the farm would be $10,000/year. The improvements are right in the middle of the farm creating a textbook Kansas abandoned farmstead hunting haven for whitetails and turkeys. Deer love bedding around the old barns and buildings and their tracks along the two track road are there to prove it. Next to the improvements lies a stocked 1 acre pond for fishing. The farm provides an incredible amount of edge with the 3 main portions of tillable fields including waterways and plenty of cover on the outside. I could not believe the amount of quail I heard while touring the farm.

South Owl creek runs through the entirety of the farm providing a travel corridor whitetail hunters will love. A timber improvement plan specifically for wildlife was implemented on the farm and has been completed. A mix of hardwoods with acorn producing oaks, hedge, walnuts, among many others can be found throughout the timbered portions of the property. Deer rubs and scrapes litter the vein of timber running through the property especially in the thick cedar bedding areas. Deer, turkey, and quail and their sign can be seen almost everywhere you step on this farm. To top it all off, there is a very clean 2000 model single wide trailer with 2 beds and 2 baths in the far Northeast corner of the property. It is equipped with septic, rural water, electricity, and even natural gas. The porch on this hunting cabin provide views overlooking the property and quail are often seen right in the yard. Being in the Northeast corner of the property, it allows you to stay away from the areas you’ll be hunting while still giving you great access. The farm is conveniently located just 5 minutes from Yates Center and 20 minutes from Iola. The seller may consider leasing additional land for hunting close by, and would also consider selling the land less a few acres and the trailer in the Northeast corner.
