This is a rare property that brings the country to town! Approximately 14 acres in the Northeast corner is not located in a floodplain and literally sitting on the edge of Parsons, KS city limits with black top road frontage. This area is ideal for building a home to raise a family or developing into several home sites. Circle Park is located one block to the East. 23000 Road is the Southern boundary of the farm and that road turns into Southern Avenue as it enters Parsons. Southern Avenue intersects 32nd Street and then Highway 59 a little further East. This location makes commuting to school and work very accessible while maintaining a rural property. The ability to hunt deer and turkeys or play in the creek does not come with the sacrifice of miles of dirt roads or losing the conveniences of living in town!

There are several buildings located on the Southeast corner of the property that have been there for ages. Some of the sheds, lean-tos, or outbuildings can be rehabilitated and put to use. Others will have to be evaluated by the buyer to see what they may be able to salvage. The old house has a newer tin roof, but the rest of it is in poor condition. It has not been lived in for years. This portion of the farm is located in a floodplain. There is a map attached to this listing to show the areas that do flood. The source of flooding is Little Labette Creek that flows through the property. There is also a pond located in the woods approximately 100-150 yards Northwest of the old house.
The recreational appeal to the farm is hard to deny. Deer and turkey are plentiful as well as ducks that use the pond and creek. The potential to take the duck hunting to the next level is very likely. The topography of the farm is 0-2% slopes and the soil is comprised of Lanton, Hepler, and Cherokee silt loams. There are multiple locations that are suitable to construct impoundments for hunting waterfowl. There is a secluded 3 acre field on the East side of Little Labette Creek that is typically filled with buck rubs. This field has started to be taken over by smaller trees. It is at a state where it could be turned into smaller food plots or a plot that twist and turns through the field working around existing trees. With that being said it would not take a huge investment of time or money to clean up the 3 acre field and plant the field of dreams. As the saying goes, "Plant it and they will come". On the flip side this field has as much or more potential to be a impoundment. It is already a wet area and the soil would be great for growing corn, milo, millet to be flooded. Turkeys are also plentiful in this area. There are trail camera pictures of multiple Toms in the same picture. Also, plenty of hens to continue to support the population in the future.
The agricultural production of the farm has several angles that can be utilized. Last year there was cattle grazed on the East side during the summer months and then they were removed prior to deer season. The East side does have roughly 14 acres that could be broke out with very little clearing and then another 3 acres that would need some work. The West side of Labette Creek was planted to beans last year. This region suffered from an iconic drought in 2022 and the crops in most areas proof that with their yields. This portion of the farm was in hay production prior to being planted to beans. In the future it could be planted to in crops, planted back to grass, or turned into wildlife habitat.
Approximately 14 Acres located in the Northeast corner of the farm that is not located in a floodplain. This area is suitable for a housing development or to build your own rural home with space to play!
The Eastern boundary of the property is South 37th St. This is a paved street and only one block from Circle Park.
The Southern boundary is 23000 Rd, which turns into Southern Avenue. The feel of country living will be obtained without losing the conveniences of living in town!
Little Labette Creek flows through the property and then hooks up with Labette Creek Southeast of Parsons. It creates fishing opportunities as well as a water source for the wildlife that cruise up and down it.
There is a very healthy population of deer using the farm. The volume of deer is great and the quality of bucks is as well. Hunting the rut along creek and river banks in Southeast Kansas creates the opportunity to hunt deer that are traveling for miles looking for does.
Little Labette Creek has steep banks. Although the deer can cross it at any point, the bank influences where the deer tend to cross at.
There is an oxbow that is in the North Central portion of the acreage and big mature trees line the creek bank and the wooded areas. There are a few walnut trees mixed in with other types of trees.
Crop fields are located to the North, South, and West. Between the natural browse and amount of cropland food will not be the limiting factor to this farm!
There are turkeys on this farm as well. Multiple toms in the same trail cam picture.
Farm Service Agency maps show that there is a little over 34 acres of this parcel that are considered to be tillable. The acreage located West of Little Labette Creek was planted to beans in 2022.
For the waterfowl enthusiast this property offers ideal soils for marsh creation. Lanton Silt Loam makes up over half of the total acreage. It has a 0-2% slope and 16 of the acres are currently in production. There is a hidden 3 acre field that is Hepler Silt Loam with a 0-2% slope. This portion of the farm would need a little bit of clean up and small tree removal to be a huge food plot surrounded by trees or with a little dirt work it could be a marsh that would be hard to see from anywhere other than the air! The Northeast corner that is not located in the floodplain is Cherokee silt loam for 12 of the 14 acres. It is a 0-1 % slope.
