Legal Description: W2 of S21, T14, R06W
Property Description: +/- 300 acres in the Smoky Hills of Central Kansas. This piece of land brings so much diversity from the 100 foot hill and extraordinary Kansas cliff faces to the natural springs, creek, pond, and timber. Mulberry Creek winds through the east end of the property, along with natural springs, that provide a water source for the wildlife all year long. Several years ago the NRCS helped cost share the black walnut trees to be planted along the waterway in a small portion on the north side of the property adjacent to the road. These black walnut trees are now mature trees on the property and are the perfect cover for wildlife. A pond also lies on this property, making it a great place for the waterfowl to travel to. Numerous Whitetail deer and Rio Grande turkey roam this property. The pasture is currently leased for cattle. 111.94 acres are currently enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). The current CRP payments will expire September 30, 2020. The new CRP contract will renew October 1, 2020 and will consist of 100.39 acres of CRP at $43 per acre and expired 9-30-30. The diverse characteristics of the land make this property an exquisite purchase for any buyer.
