Located just north of Protection in Comanche County, this 320 acre property and home is a rare combination for this area of Kansas. For waterfowl hunters the search for the best water is always the biggest hurdle. In certain parts of the country, it is prevalent and easy to come by. In southern and western Kansas, it is like finding a gold mine. The key in this area is that if you always want water, it's not just a creek or a lake; it's the springs, and the ducks flock to that special kind of water just like people do. This property has the water, and it's some of the best we have seen in this region for fishing, recreation, and wildlife. The property has two creeks in, Bluff Creek and Buzzard Creek, and they both flow right along side one another and into these wetland bottoms that take up the majority of this property. Over time, that has created natural a pothole type pond system that is virtually right out your back door. With ample places to implement a spacious pit blind, this waterfowl hunting opportunity is basically set on go once the perfect spot is chosen. The fishing is also one of the key features to the property, as you can almost cast a line form the back yard deck. A cool summer morning feels different when you can walk to the water's edge with your coffee in about 30 seconds. Along with these waterfowl and fishing opportunities, this is also one of the most highly sought after counties in the entire state for monster deer, and the creek bottoms north of Protection are currently and always have been the spot on the spot for trophy deer hunters. This property will serve as one of, if not the deer bedding capital. When the hot, dry summers that this area is known for set in, the deer always look for the cool hidden places that have a thick grassy cover where they can escape the heat and water relatively easily. With the implementation of a few feeders or food plots to coincide with the already existing wheat and milo crops, this farm is everything a big deer needs. All of this recreational opportunity is solidified with an exceptional 3,253 sq. ft. home that was built in 2012 and is in great condition. This home will certainly serve as a true home, a weekend getaway, or a hunting lodge for a small group of die-hard hunters. The home maintains 3 current bedrooms on the main level with a large living area that can also maintain some beds in the lower level. There are 2 ¾ bathrooms upstairs, along with 1 bathroom in the lower level. This home has all the amenities that you would expect in a newer constructed home, including concrete foundation, wood cabinets, and many more features. One feature that is specific to this home is the large 4/season porch/sunroom overlooking some of the best waterfowl habitat and fishing in the county. In addition, all the toys and equipment can be contained in the 40X60 metal building that is just a few yards from the home. There are 103.7 acres of high-quality Class II tillable dirt that is currently planted to wheat and alfalfa. These acres can be host to a variety of crops and certainly will provide some income. The homestead area is a beautiful setting with towering cottonwood trees and a long gravel drive, which comes right from a quiet blacktop road. If you are in the market for a full palate of hunting and home, this is one that we won't see again anytime soon. Please contact listing agent to schedule a viewing of the rare Kansas farm.
