This incredible 84 +/- acre tract is located just off of blacktop north of Harveyville, Kansas and offers remarkable history, well-rounded hunting, a great return on investment, and endless beautiful views. This is one for the history books and sure won’t compare to any others out there!
The 84 acres are made up of 45 acres of tillable row crop, 30 acres of pristine brome hay meadows and native bluestem grass, and 9 heavily wooded acres with the Wakarusa River running through it. The tillable crop acres bring in $3,150 in annual rent income and the hay meadows are on a 1/3-2/3-crop share, totaling $3,850 in average annual rent income from the agriculture land. Soil types of Martin, Irwin and Ladysmith, considered class II, III, and IV, make up the foundation of the land. The longtime tenant farmers are stewards of the land and take above average care.
If you’re looking for a honey hole...
If you’re looking for a honey hole of a hunting tract, this is it! There are incredible genetics in the area, with 180"+ being harvested. Several mature bucks have been taken on the tract over the years, making it a longtime producer with several promising up comers on the way. Primo stand locations along the creek in pinch points, along with established rifle blinds, provide the long range or bowhunter the best opportunity to harvest. The turkey hunting on this farm is endless with no issue ever filling a tag. Each time touring the property, several nice sized quail coveys were kicked up.
Pack the canoe and cooler and enjoy a quiet day out on the river, floating, kayaking, fishing, or treasure hunting the sandbars. Oh yes, plenty of historic gems have been found in the neck of the Wakarusa. Along with what has been found in the creek bed, several artifacts have been found on the two Native American camps that set on this farm. Hundreds of arrowheads and additional artifacts have been discovered by the owners over the years and I know there are more to come. This is a piece of pure American history!
With all the diversity and history, plus a perfect location, this is the perfect tract to build a retreat home and be able to walk out and enjoy what the land has to offer day after day. This 84 acre gem is one for the books and one to tour in person!
